The headstock logo is for Alden's, not Montgomery Wards. Many people say this is an "Airline" logo because of your website... hate it! - iinsic - 2010-09-09
Just bought one of these on eBay. Can't wait to play/work on it. - Thomas - 2016-11-17
Have a Sears Silvertone 3301H605. This appears to be a Harmony number, based on other guitars that I own. I've had it since 1960. It was used when I got it. My best guess is mid to late 1950s. - Chris Till - 2017-05-12
I have an H605, branded Silvertone, that is definitely ink-stamped 1956. - Steve Eddy/Blue Room Guitars - 2017-08-26

Just restored a 1957 Stella 605 which has a sunburst finish. Converted the floating bridge to a fixed Ebony pin bridge. Great parlour size guitar with a really nice soft V profile neck and 1 3/4" wide nut.
