I have a Silvertone that looks exactly like this Archtone. My Mom got it new from Sears in the 50's. Can anyone tell me how to find out the exact info on it as faras date and model? - SJW 46 - 2007-10-29
I just bought one of these in Seattle, accoustic only. It is in nearly perfect condition and plays great and loud. I assume it is an early one because it does not say that it has a steel reinforced neck on the headstock but the neck is still straight and flat. BR - SJW46 - Norm B - 2008-02-11
I have a near perfect 1958 H1214. Cool guitar!
