This Harmony Stella Parlour Acoustic Guitar is Owned By Billie Joe Armstrong, Guitarist Of Legendary Punk Rock Band Green Day
Stella was an American guitar brand owned by the Oscar Schmidt Company. It was founded around 1899. The Stella brand consists of low and mid-level stringed instruments.
Stella guitars were played by notable artists, including Robert Johnson, Lead Belly, Charlie Patton, Doc Watson and Willie Nelson who learned to play on one. Kurt Cobain of Nirvana played an acoustic Stella on the recording of the song Polly, from the Nevermind album, and Mason Williams with Classical Gas.
Serial: N/A. 3/4 Scale Simulated Flametop Board Tape Holding intonation of bridge. Not the rarest piece of gear but this was one of Billie’s first guitars he owned and was played on the original Dookie recording. It is featured on the song FOD.
Like the other Harmony in this shop, this guitar is dirty but holds it's tune. A super excellent wall hanger with an unbelievable amount of provenance for any Dookie fan. Ships in a chipboard case. Still retains the original board tape to set the intonation, also still has the same guitar strings from the recording!
NOTE: Buyers who are purchasing outside of the Continental US will need to file for appropriate CITES certification through the Fish & Wildlife Administration due to the rosewood on this guitar. Shipping lead times could be anywhere from 1-4 weeks while export documentation is organized. Buyer be advised!
