Harmony H159 Acoustic Guitar
Late 20th Century

Up for sale is a rare vintage 1970 Harmony H159 Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar—a true one-year wonder crafted during Harmony's final golden era. Often described as a "giant Stella," this jumbo-sized dreadnought delivers a bold, woody tone that's perfect for blues slide, folk strumming, or vintage-style picking. Featuring an all-birch body with a natural hardwood top and rosewood-tone stained back and sides, it’s accented with white celluloid binding, a black pickguard with the iconic music-note logo, and a round soundhole framed by simulated marquetry. The 25.25" scale and ebonized maple fretboard make for a smooth playing experience, while the open-back Waverly tuners keep it holding tune like a champ.

This example is an all original guitar, including its hardware and tuners. There is the typical cosmetic wear for a living room guitar such as minor dings and a slightly warpped pickguard which adds to its authentic vintage vibe, nothing that affects playability. Whether you're a collector, a blues player, or someone seeking a character-rich acoustic with real soul, this Harmony H159 is a rare gem that’s ready to play and be loved for years to come.
