Baxendale Conversions, world class acoustic guitars that musicians can afford. H319 Comparison video
These are two Silverton H3 19’s that are made by Harmony in Chicago and sold through Sears and roebuck stores throughout the 50s and 60s. These two are from the early 60s and one has been fully remanufactured by the Baxendale conversion process and the other is original with its original crude ladder bracing. This video attempts to demonstrate the different sound between the two designs of bracing. The Baxendale conversion has tuned scalloped bracing. The other one has the original crude, ladder bracing. The ladder braced Guitar has a tone that is all fundamental with very little harmonic overtones, it also has limited headroom. Baxendale conversion Guitar with scalloped X bracing has a much more sophisticated sound with complex overtones especially in the Lo mids and the low end. The Baxendale conversion also has a much higher headroom level meaning that you can dig into the guitar and it just keeps getting bigger and bigger. It doesn’t top out like a hard limiter.
This Baxendale conversion is currently available and we have others like it is so if you’re interested, please give us a call or email us.

    I own one identical to this same burst finish. (My 618 is a 51’ model year Edit)Even though these are ladder braced originally and folks want to X-Brace these, that is fine for some. As for mine it has a very haunting and deep distinct tone that I do not want to compromise so ladder braced it stays. I do love that guitar Scott it is very special! Thank you for sharing.

    Normally when you see, grab, and play these types of guitars, they don’t sound too good because of the way they were originally designed and built. Let some unsuspecting guitar player grab this one and they will be blown away at how great this one plays, feels, and sounds. Magnificent work sir! ❤

    I am far distance and difficult frontiers for packets from you. I manage with second hand Yamahas and Casa Nuñez the most (Casa Nuñez was well still exists the most good brand of standars guitars here in Argentina for a century so you can rely for a spanish Casa Nuñez and also made low line steel acoustic that are just ok like an Aria for example). My best guitar bought new was a top of the line made in japan Ovation steel electroacoustic but I somewhat got bored as times passed by because the Ovation is round and myself am round too 😂 then my great Ovation is now with my eldest son and I manage with my used Yamahas and not worried if someone steal me a guitar or broke they are cheap but do the job until I would be playing in a stadium for my fans some day 😂. Greetings from Argentina, South America.
