IT IS A WONDERFUL GUITAR. If the price indication in you add is comparison per year increase then mine should be worth about $640.00 in todays market at a $20.00 a year increase. Wonder why they are selling for only 60 to 120 on ebay? - Mysteron - 2007-08-16
Just found a bound version in almost mint condtion. Seems barely played (very little fret wear). The tortoise shell pickguard had come off, but was included ! Lovely sound, decent action; not as well-balanced as my 1971 D-18, but a big, sweet voice nonetheless. I'm very glad to have it. - mcmorey - 2008-11-02
I am an original owner of one of these and I loved it like a brother for many years. I bought mine when I was in about the 8th grade (that would be around 72-73). I used it frequently through my high school and college years. It did and still does have good sound and projection. Had a buddy in college who had a guild and he preferred this one for sound and ease of playing. The top has bowed upwards over the years and is really best suited these days for slide work which it does well. - - 2009-03-04
Many of the Harmony guitars on ebay need some expensive repairs like neck resets, refretting, etc. Just as many more suffer from unprofessional patches that are expensive to correct. Those in great playing condition with all original parts do sell close to the predicted increase. - Virgus Ewing - 2009-05-27
Picked up one today was very curiuos as to what such sweet sounding guitar would be worth in Todays Market. Just by reading some of the other coments I dont think i paid too much,Think i'll keep it a while, but if somone comes out with the right amount; i might part with it. - Mysteron - 2010-04-24
A further note to my comment of 2007-08-16: I've had this guitar for almost 3 years now, and I find it is best suited to fingerstyle playing. It does not have great depth or resonance as a "strummer", but when played in more of a "plucking" fashion, it has much more "presence". (sorry for all the quotation marks.) - H6365Guy - 2010-09-14
FUCKING BARGAIN!!!! These are the best bang for your buck, as far as I'm concerned.... why pay more for an H165 with no truss rod? These things fucking have it! - Bobkat Man - 2012-03-15
These are great guitars with a rich full sound. They sound unlike anything else, I also have a Martin solid mahogony of the same size and they sound completely different. One is not better or worse, just different.
