1960 Silvertone Stratotone Jupiter 1423 Vintage Guitar by Harmony USA
Ex-Peter Green Collection | Bonhams Provenance | All Original
An exceptionally rare opportunity to own a true piece of blues and rock history: a 1960 Silvertone Stratotone Jupiter Model 1423, built by Harmony USA and formerly owned by the legendary Peter Green.
This vintage Jupiter remains all original and is a fantastic playing example of Harmony's highly regarded Stratotone series. It delivers the distinctive tone these guitars are known for, including the sought-after out-of-phase sound in the middle pickup position, producing a uniquely hollow, cutting voice that sits beautifully in a mix and instantly evokes classic blues and vintage rock recordings.
Beyond its musical qualities, this guitar carries extraordinary provenance, having come directly from the Bonhams Peter Green auction held in June 2023. It represents a rare chance to acquire an instrument that was part of the collection of one of the most influential guitarists of all time.
