Having recently got a 1910 Washburn 1-15, a 1933 Kalamazoo KG-11, and a 1963 Martin (5-16) all 'refurbished', (not to the extent that yours are done,) but all brought up to perfect playability; I can attest to the excellent value these represent. I'd be buying one if I didn't already have most of my guitar bases covered, and also because I'm getting old and my playing days are numbered. But what a great opportunity for one to get a real vintage guitar with all its issues already solved. No guesswork or risk-taking, as it's all been done ahead of time for you! And it's as "green" an approach to guitar building as I've ever seen! :)
I am 70, been playing violin since about 8, got some guitars and more violins when I hit about 40. What motivates me about instruments is the sound, or tone, or the interwoven vibrations or whatever word is appropriate. I have big problems with humidity, I live in Los Angeles and it swings between 50 to 61 per cent with a dehumidifier running constantly. Anyway,,, when I hear a certain tone it grabs me and I want to own it. I have a half dozen of those Harmony's, one is pretty good and I play it, it does not sound like the one in this video, but the other thing is, it feels clunky, like the fingerboard is too wide maybe,, I don't know. Whoever reads this,,, trust me: THAT guitar is a major winner. Send the money and put a smile on your face for many years.
@@winstonoboogie2424 the later years have adjustable rods, but the steel reinforced neck models sound better. These necks have done all the twisting and warping they are going to do being over 50 years old. Once we plane them straight and do our neck magic they are extremely stable to the point we give a lifetime warranty to the original purchaser for playability. One some models we do install graphite reinforcement rods, but only if we are replacing the fingerboard.
@@patrickevelyn8028 $1795.00 which includes a new hard case and new guitar warranty. This one has been sold but we have several other H165’s available just like it to purchase.
oooh, this one's a standout in tone, clarity, and finish!
Thanks. It’s a nice one.

Yes, a premium example.

Sweet!
Thanks!
I am blown away by the tone. And I have owned and played vintage Martins, Gibsons, etc. Wonder how much this would cost?
These are $1795.00 with a new hard case.
@@scottbaxendale323 Thank you.
Interesting. I owned one. But what about adding an adjustable truss?
