Easy really, depending on depth of scratches etc. If its just general marks I would use elbow grease and a guitar polish that DOESN'T contain silicon. If they are heavier, the white automotive cutting pastes and polish and heavier still then the red automotive cutting compounds followed by the white...

And further to Razs' comments Darcy, I couldn't find that model but the H6130 and H6134 were 1970's Harmony Stella reissues of earlier Harmony models so probably 1970 - 1975 but look for the date stamp Raz mentioned.

Dude, their second hand dealers license requires that they not handle stolen goods, and they have to keep records of selers etc, if they don't they are the responsible party, you DEFINITELY have to report this to the police, if their record keeping is not correct then each of us are at risk when our...

Yeah have to agree, mines swamp ash, rosewood board etc, but so many get away from the trad setup re electronics, mind you wouldn't mind a thinline

Anything other than a normal tele i.e. single pups, 3 way switch etc is not a tele IMHO, humbuckers etc just don't cut it, slab body, trad set up, otherwise buy a Strat or Les Paul if thats what you want, the versatile sounds from a stock tele is why you buy one :lol:

Weeeell, heres where I get to be shot down, seems every other guitar is a Strat, Tele, Les Paul, SG, 335 or variations there of, I have owned most of these (except a Les) in various incarnations. Honestly, they pretty much sound the same with either less or more on the pups, or easier playability, s...

No danger of herring loss, as long as the Orange roughie kept the volume down, a boat Fender should keep most of the Reef raff away, and the blue sharks will have to report to BG.

1965 Harmony Broadway, all solid birch (not ply), pressed top. Best sounding archtop I own (I have 3), nice lows and great mellow sound and great for slide. Bargain at US$137. Minus pickguard when I bought it but cheap to replace, mint condition. http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n204/k1w1_02/BG.jpg

Not to put too fine a pointer on it, it looks like a wobbegong gone wrong, with overtones of being a lemon shark crossed with a mako or break, better call a nurse :)

Well at that price, I would be going for one of these (yeah OK I am biased I like top end Harmonys) anywhere between $250-400 US, MUCH better pups, the Dearmond Rowes. Harmony H19 or Silvertone 1478.Heres mine before it left the states [/img] http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n204/k1w1_02/Picture-2...
