Harmony Juno
This is a great small-bodied guitar. Made in the USA at the Heritage factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan. It has a nitrocellulose finish and locking tuners.
It has a mahogany neck and body, and a rosewood fingerboard.
I’ve not played it much at all. I prefer the neck on my Harmony Rebel. The neck on this is probably around Fender deep C size.
The hand wound gold foil P90s sound great - like all Harmony pickups - full as expected from a P90 but with some sparkle a bit like a filtertron. It’s lightweight too, weighing 6lb 3oz (2.8kg).
I can’t find a mark on it. Let me know if you have any questions.
It comes with a mono stealth case, which retails at about £175.
I restrung it with D’addario NYXL 10s about a week ago.

Here’s some info from Harmony:
The Harmony Juno is what we imagine small body guitars to be — compact yet capable of powerful sound. Its genuine mahogany body is lightweight, perfectly balanced and comfortable in the hands of any musician.
Crafted with a pair of hand-wound gold foil P90 pickups, the Juno offers warm and rich harmonics that roar with an attitude once you push this wonderful guitar into overdrive. A push/pull Master Volume pot adds even more tonal versatility — just pull it up to recreate the effect of a rolled-off tone knob.

This is a really striking guitar. The flame maple top looks great. I imported it from the USA at fairly significant cost. I’m selling it because I have a Harmony Rebel, and this is too similar.
This may well be the only flame maple Harmony Silhouette in the UK. I contacted the retailer about buying another flame maple Harmony (Juno) and was told that they shouldn’t have exported the one I already had.
The hand-wound gold foil mini-humbuckers sound great. Kind of like a thicker telecaster.
It has an Alder body with a flame maple cap, a maple neck with an ebony fingerboard and a nitrocellulose finish. It’s made in the USA at the Heritage factory in Kalamazoo.
It’s lightweight, weighing 7lb 5oz (3.3kg)
It has a small dink near the jack socket and a couple of other imperfections that are photographed. Otherwise, it is in really good condition. These imperfections came to me from the shop. There isn’t any play wear as far as I can see.
It has locking tuners and it comes with a mono vertigo case, which cost around £200 on their own.
It has been restrung with D’addario NYXL 10s.

This Harmony Comet sounds great. And I'm pretty torn on whether to sell it. As with the others, it is made at the Heritage factory in the USA (Kalamazoo). It has a pair of hand-wound gold foil humbuckers. They have the thickness and depth of a humbucker, but with some brightness. Almost like a fuller sounding filtertron. The push/pull master volume gives out of phase sounds too.
It has a carved mahogany top and back, a nitrocellulose finish and a rosewood fingerboard. It has a bone nut and mahogany neck. It has an orange drop capacitor and locking tuners too.
It weighs just 6lbs (2.7kg).
I’ve had it from new and I’ve hardly played it. I have a Harmony Rebel with the same pickups that suits my music style better. They are too similar to justify keeping both.
There are a couple of very minor imperfections and a few marks from playing, but nothing that I can really photograph. The most significant is a small mark on the pick guard which is photographed.
It comes with a great quality mono vertigo case that retails around £200 on its own.
These are out of stock in the UK with a waiting time of over three months.
I’ve recently restrung it with D’addario NYXL 10s.
Here’s some info from the manufacturer:
Inspired by the original Harmony H72 of the '60s, the Comet represents the very first semi-hollow electric guitar in our lineup of cherished musical instruments.
This double cutaway guitar has an immaculately carved genuine mahogany top and back for warm, well-rounded and acoustic-like tone. The addition of a center block minimizes feedback, and the long-tenon set neck construction increases sustain.
Custom gold foil humbuckers provide sheer musical enjoyment for players who love rock, blues and more, while the push/pull master volume pot extends the Comet's tonal possibilities by engaging incredible out-of-phase sounds.
A six-in-line headstock pays homage to the original H72's iconic look, and premium hardware ensures that the Comet will never lose its appeal.
