Vintage Harmony H1203 Sovereign OM - w/ neck-reset - new frets - re-braced.. etc., etc.
OMG ..... THIS IS A STEAL!
This H1203 Sovereign OM came in to the shop a few day back on trade. The owner had little history just said that it looked like it had new binding on the back. After a deal was made I started to inspect the guitar much closer. What I found was shocking; this unit has new tuners, a neck-reset, new frets, the back had been removed and the top was re-braced, new binding was installed to close the back as well. Not certain if the bridge is new or original but it is the correct style made with Brazilian rosewood.. oh, new compensated bone saddle too. Never to win a cute-contest - just a GREAT player/recorder guitar!
After all this.. I played it.... with no exaggeration, this is the finest sounding Harmony H1203 Sovereign OM I have ever played. Historically, I have been underwhelmed by the 1203 and stuck to the Harmony Sovereign 1260 Jumbo.
This is the exception to the rule - HUGE TONE - MUST SEE!
PRICED TO SELL - SOLD AS IS
