Early Sears catalogs (61-62) show the guitar with different pickups (P13) and pickup's rings, but no sample is found today with these, so we can suppose they just used a touched-up picture before completing the guitar's design.

See similar model 1488-1 in metallic blue. Supro (Valco) 1550A - Ranchero (1951-1960) - Electric Archtop - Sunburst Supro neck and electronics, Harmony body (stamped H950 inside, so the body should be the same as the acoustic Harmony H950 Monterey Leader) Supro (Valco) 1580A - Coronado (thin line) (1960) - Electric hollowbody - Natural The body only was made by Harmony.
