1962 Harmony Stratotone Mars H46 Vintage Guitar 100% Original w/ Gold Foil, Case

Description: Up for sale, a 1962 Harmony Stratotone Mars model H46 in collector-grade, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original chipboard case. One of the less common upscale Stratotone models, this Mars model features unique stack knob Volume and Tone controls for the pair of DeArmond-made "Hershey Bar" pickups. A fully hollow instrument with a wooly bark when strummed acoustically, these tonal properties translate through the pickups with great accuracy. The instrument has a rich, warm sound in all pickup positions, with optimal tonal control given the stacked dual Volume and Tone knobs. This Harmony is featherweight at 5lbs 3oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings and easy-playing action. Neck Specs: -Wood: Maple -Shape: Chunky C, measuring .890” 1st fret, .940” 12th fret -Fretboard: Dyed maple -Frets: Slender, no wear -Scale Length: 24 1/4” -Nut: 1 3/4”, bone -Tuners: Open-gear strip Body Specs: -Wood: Maple -Pickups: DeArmond "Hershey Bar" x2 -Controls: Volume x2, Tone x2 -Hardware: Rosewood bridge, trapeze tailpiece -Plastics: Single-ply pickguard (atom graphic) -Serialization: 1962 date stamp and H46 model stamp in body Remarkably well kept for over 60 years, this Harmony features near-mint stacked knobs and clean graphics on the pickguard. The chrome-plated tailpiece and pickup covers are positively gleaming, and the two-tone Sunburst gloss has only a bit of faint lacquer checking on top, with cosmetic wear limited to a few tiny finish chips and a small area of very faint buckle worming on the treble-side lower bout on the back. The original gray chipboard case is included and equally as clean as the guitar. The case features pristine black leather trim, functional latches, and the original handle.
