051023A
What do you get when you combine a 60’s deep body folk guitar with an orphan slothead neck from parts unknown? You get a marriage made in vintage acoustic blues heaven! The Model 910 was Harmony’s gift to modern fingerstyle blues player on a budget. This body is a little longer and a little deeper than most parlors made prior to 1970 and this added body volume accentuates projection and bite, especially with a scale length that finds the bridge smack dab in the “sweet spot”. An American made classic at an affordable price.
