The seller says this is an H51 but it looks alot like a Roy Smekck H57 to me (minus the pickguard). Either way this is a very desireable guitar for a very low price (only $95!). The crappy glue job on the rear aside that pickup is clearly a GIBSON P13 (Seth Lover design) which harmony used on the Roy Smeck in the early 1950's. Grab it!

Full size Harmony Hollowbody H51 archtop guitar with f holes and pickup.
Volume and tone knobs. P
this is it: http://harmony.demont.net/guitars/H51/138.htm
Nice blues/jazz sound. Play it acoustic or electric.
Would be cool as an extra guitar setup for slide or to have in an open tuning.
Note: Over 12 years ago it fell and the back piece of wood came undone.
I glued it back together with glue but didn't clean it up very well so there's still some glue residue.
It's still solid as a rock and doesn't seem to have affected the sound at all.
Location: silverlake/atwater village
I've got one I am about to post on craigslist. I was looking around to see what they're going for. I'm surprised to find the exact guitar I've got. Mine has the pick guard. Check out Minneapolis craigslist if you're interested!
