I have decided to thin out the wood and replace with electronics so to quench my thirst for valves these 3 are up for sale. All 3 are 0-size (Between 12,5 and 13.5 Inches) Ive owned the black Harmony Supertone for 11 years and its awesome. Delicate but awesome. All solid birch The Koa Sovereign is top drawer 1925 Jersey City Oscar Schmidt. All Koa, Mahogany neck Toilet seat fretboard. Needs the neck removing and the board sorting out. The 1920 rope Stella is second top drawer. Moustache bridge. Spruce top, Mahogany back, Birch sides, just another quirk of the Schmidt factory in the 20s. Needs a new nut, theres a (too big) gap between the middle strings Regarding cases I have modern hard or a couple of non original cardboard cases. Ideally I would like any prospective buyer to view in person but I will post Black Supertone £400 Koa Sovereign £1000 Rope Stella £800 More details and photos if anyone is interested. I can send more photos or talk on the phone etc. Trades for 1940s-60s 5-10W amplifiers will be very welcome. Also thanks to Mr M for use of this platform Not sure why the uploads fell on their sides.... I live near Bristol. Andy

Hi Andy: The Supertone model (as illustrated) is often used by Seasick Steve in his concerts, though most of the painted artwork has rubbed away. You can just make out the moon and trees. I had one of these once and wished I hadn't sold it. Fantastic tone - a bit like a Kalamazoo - and light as a feather. You have great taste in guitars! Alan

Great shout Alan I remember him playing it on Jools Hollands Hootenanny years ago. He must have had his rebuilt a few times, he really goes to work on it !
