  My grandfather found one of these from 1960 in a garbage can in Queens NY in 1981. I had it sitting in my father's basement for decades. Last year as a tribute to my grandfather, I restored it. It still has the old beat up finish and I removed the lower part of the bridge to improve the action but, even though the body fell apart and needed to be reglued it held up in a damp basement and it is the most fun guitar I own and I enjoy playing it (especially finger picking) more than any of the expensive guitars I have. It is surprisingly easy to play and sounds awesome. It was useless when I was a kid learning to play but, now as a professional musician I am so happy that I kept it till I was old enough to appreciate it.

  I picked up this guitar at a farmers market in southeast PA. in the mid 70's for 20 bucks. I always thought it was a Monterey guitar. It wasent till a few months ago that the light caught the top and I saw some lettering that said Harmony. It always has been my favorite to play even with the slight bow of the neck.
