  i just bought a harmony rocket at a garage sale. I found what i think is the serial number (3626H56). It is a very beautiful guitar and it sounds great for as old as it is.

  Based upon your description it may be worth anywhere between 300 ~ 650 based on current auction prices on Ebay at the moment. (2007-11-15) Generally, most go towards the higher end of the scale. Harmony guitars and other like models from Chicago have seen a noticable gain in values over the past year. Worth a look as an investment and playing guitar.

  I have a 1966 H56. Good condition and all original. Missing a pickguard which I am currently looking for one. Unique sounds from these old guitars!

  My H56 (which I thought was an H54) has gold foil pickups, but has an adjustable truss rod. It has been a great guitar ever since I bought it new. Still gig with it occasionally.
