When I was taking lessons in the early-60's, those guitars sold under the Harmony name for $27 brand-new; as you said they could be very good-sounding guitars - and just about every kid and his cousin Angelo at the local music school had one. The one that stands out in my mind is the faux curly-maple blonde finish - there was a girl (a bit older than me) who was a killer rhythm player who had one, and she could cut through any mix with no problem...
