I own it,jusy a neat old axe! Lots of low-end nice for old chunky blues.This one is 95% condition someone took real good care of it. - Jeff - 2006-01-27
Bought mine in 1969 for 99 bucks on a major sale, has a single rounded pickguard. Great guitar for us who could not afford a Martin. Just had it totally rebuilt for major dollars by a master luthier, my old friend just keeps sounding better. Beautiful sweet balance, friendly neck, a treasure. My Taylor 810 may sound a little better, but I love this old Harmony and play it more. - Dennis - 2006-02-04
Had to wait a few years for the widow lady to decide to sell it to me. It was worth the wait. Just received it from the luthier, after some much needed attention. This is a GOOD sounding guitar. Also, this has one rounded pickguard and does not appear to have had two. - Zabu - 2006-04-11
Bought this guitar new in 1967, for 165.00 with a hard case. Still have it and it plays and sounds better now than it did when I bought it. It is not only a sweet sounding guitar but one of the best looking acoustics ever built. - Glenn - 2006-05-11
I got mine from my sister-in-law's step-father. I always used to play it when we visited them and after he died, she gave it to me. It's so rich sounding. This is the first time I've ever looked it up on the net. Mine has 9575H1265 stamped on the inside. It has since lost a gear on the A machine head, a screw on the bridge and two string-peg heads are broken off. Other than that, it's in great shape but I need to lower the action. I need the services of a trusted luthier in Central Ontario. Any suggestions? glenn@everyplug.com - Bob in the Maritimes - 2007-11-07
Enjoyed finding my Harmony Sovereign on your site. Have had mine 40 years, coming this December. A Christmas present from my wife. In my experience over the last 40 years, have found no better sounding guitar. - mike - 2008-01-13
picked up a 2088h1264 sun burst at good will love the sound. missing the upper pickguard everything else like new. 25.00 well worth it - Lou Tabaldi - 2008-01-14
Looked up Harmony Sovereign on google just to see what I'd find. Loved seeing this again. Bought one some time around 1967, and really liked it. Unfortunately, it got kicked over in the dark one night when I was in the army, and it cracked the sides. Never the same after that. Long since discarded. Sure is nice to see it on this website.
