  • Harmony Bobkat

    Electric guitar

    A 1960s double-cutaway solid-body electric guitar from the American maker Harmony, sold as an affordable beginner instrument as the Stratotone line was phased out. The Bobkat typically carried one or two single-coil pickups and shared its 'Silhouette' body with Sears Silvertone equivalents.

  • Harmony Stratotone

    Electric guitar

    An early American solid-body electric guitar from the Chicago maker Harmony, launched in 1952 - only two years after the Fender Broadcaster. The H44 Stratotone used a clever neck-through body with glued-on wings and a single pickup to keep costs down, and was played by Ritchie Valens and Carl Perkins.

  • Harmony Meteor

    Electric guitar

    A single-cutaway thinline hollow-body electric guitar from the American maker Harmony, introduced in the late 1950s. A sibling to the larger Rocket, the H70-series Meteor became a sought-after vintage instrument prized for its warm, jangly hollow tone.
