This was Sears' fanciest catalog guitar just as the Depression struck, and was offered into the early 1930's. Lovely Koa back and sides; nice spruce top with pearl bordering. Features Harmony's famous "airplane" bridge, used after 1928 on a number of their better instruments.
A lovely and fairly delicate sounding guitar, and an excellent fingerpicking instrument.

Recent neckset; one long top crack, otherwise a very nicely preserved guitar. Overall Excellent Condition.
