Up for sale, a 1967 Harmony H75 in exceptional, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with a hardshell case. This premium hollowbody was at the top of Harmony’s line in the late ‘60s, featuring a deeply figured curly maple body, a trio of DeArmond gold foil pickups, and nitrate tortoise appointments.
There's really nothing that can match the balance, clarity, and overall tonal character of a good trio of gold foil pickups. They have a percussive snap and twang, tight bass, and a harmonically-rich midrange that sounds great when each pickup is singled out or when paired together in any one of seven combinations. Unlike many gold foils, the ones on the H75 also feature adjustable pole pieces, so one can dial in the balance between the strings. All three pickups have strong output, and when mated with the fully hollow maple body, the tone benefits from both the immediate attack of the maple and the warmth and fullness of the hollow construction. This Harmony weighs 6lbs 6oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 11-49 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss Sunburst nitro lacquer finish highlights extremely deep, tight curly flame figuring extending liberally across the top and back. Cosmetic wear is limited to light buckle rash on the back and just a few minor nicks and finish scratches on the body as a whole. The gloss on the neck profile is nigh flawless.
A modern black tolex hardshell case is included.
