Supertone Vintage RARE 1942 Supertone "Singing Cowboys" Cowboy Guitar Idento Tailpiece Pro Setup New Strings Original Soft Shell Case

Today, Lawman Guitars is Presenting..

A really cool, 1942 Supertone, "Singing Cowboys" Model Cowboy Guitar, sold in Sears Stores and made by Harmony of Chicago IL. It is all original and includes the shown Soft Shell case.

The "Singing Cowboys” Guitars were made by Harmony only from 1938 to the Fall of 1943. They were sold thru the Sears Catalogs. I identified this one as a 1942 from the S42 Date stamp in the sound hole area. Sadly, they discontinued this graphic scene only one year later in 1943. Don't mistake this as one of the later Singing Cowboys guitars. They were reissued from 1951 thru 1963...You can further identify this Prewar model from the "Idento" Tailpiece. It has a flat surface for the initial set of stickers that came with the guitar...Very cool!

If you have been following my Shop, you know by now I sell a lot of these cool Cowboy Stenciled Guitars. I have lots of them hanging on the wall of my shop and most are unplayable. This one however is not only playable, it has excellent playing action. Out Techs were really happy that no neck reset was required on this one...Great playing action... No sore fingers with this one. This is the perfect campfire guitar or to hang on your wall. I just hope someone gets this one to play it. Its playable American History!

You can tell this guitar was much loved. Check out all the finger wear on the pickguard area, cowboy chord area on the fingerboard and the back of the neck. All Player Wear.. It was well taken care of, but also played...a lot! I love seeing player wear like this. This was not a closet classic! It is also one of the best playing Cowboy Guitars we have had. Even without a neck reset. This is a really really good example. Beautiful Graphics, no cracks, no breaks, and only a few dings and scratches.

The parts are all Harmony made and original. It has the Waverly Open Back Harmony Tuners, Black Tuner buttons, Original Wood nut, Harmony "Idento" tailpiece and bridge. It has some dings, scratches, and finish missing in spots. All honest wear. It looks cool and is structurally sound now. Excellent shape for 1942...

The Original Soft Shell Case is also very nice. The accessory box is even there. It’s a real nice authentic case for your cool Cowboy Guitar. The previous owner did the hinge repair job. We covered the inside of the rivets on the inside of the case with some adhesive felt. I was afraid they would scratch the guitar taking it in and out. Be careful with that original case. Get a gigbag for your guitar to travel with. This case is historic!

Sold as-is no returns as its vintage and used.. thanks for respecting that.
