  I have a H37 and it has the color and finish of the H39. Year was 1962. Maybe in the transition to the new H39 they used old H37 backs. Any Ideas?

  I just picked up a Harmony Hollywood today from a co-worker who had found it at a yard sale. I feel like I've won the lottery! This is such a nice instrument and the pickup is working and sounds rich! Put a new set of strings on this baby and we are going to play! btw...my serial number is 3653H37 but there is no date stamp that I see. Any idea on the year? Thanks!
