Practicing a little on mine right now in G, Write Me a Few Lines (McDowell) and Feel Like Going Home (Waters) - both based on lessons from the Michael Messer Cuppa Sessions 2014-6 (MMCS 2014-6)... I found this page on the Harmony site very interesting for research. François Demont who developed the database and maintains the site says hits his collection - about 300 guitars and if you hover over a picture it will give details like the scale, materials, nut width etc. harmony.demont.net/myguitars.phpHarriet

He had a massive collection of Harmony made guitars and ukuleles. He was in the process of writing a book on Harmony guitars and the history of the company. While a lot of the photos on the site were his guitars, he also collected photos on the web and ebay auctions. Sadly, Francois died of a heart attack in 2014. He was a man of many talents, photography and audio (he was a sound engineer for a TV station). The site is now maintained by his partner Poleth and a friend.

The Harmony database is being redone. The lovely page with a ton of models over the years where you could mouse over and get the basic specs and materials is gone!!!! from the top level of the website but you can still get the page for now: harmony.demont.net/myguitars.php Harriet
