NEW LISTING! - 02/04/2024. - Restoration in progress, including an original pickguard! - New set of photos will be added on completion....meantime, limited series of "work in progress" photos and I will be adding Jake Wildwood links to both this model and the similar H417 "Teaburst" model, I recently restored and sold, which can also be seen in pages VTG 8A & 8C.
____________________________________________________________
For background information please see next page VTG 8.
I regularly "pre-sell" my guitars, at the stage where I am still working on them, or even before starting, so I list some, not all, of the guitars waiting to come through the workshop, and welcome further enquiries, if you don't see what you are looking for.
*** Bags more character and vintage appeal, for lot less bucks than either the cheapest similar style Eastman mandolin, or the top Ozark "Deluxe" & Gold Tone models of similar archtop type.....currently £659 & upwards for the Eastman, and £599 for the Ozark, at the splendid Eagle Music Shop!
Stock Numbers: VTG1594.

Embedded YouTube clip is from the irreplaceable Jake Wildwood, Country Guitar Doctor, entitled "1970s Harmony Monterey A-style mandolin by Jake Wildwood & Co". This is a much later example of the same model....only differing in appearance on the later headstock logo style. It includes additional link with the clip to the accompanying write up on his Jake's blogspot!
