I agree!!!!!! I just got this 1969 harmony sears with the atomic logo all solid birch parlor, that had a neck reset, and some bridge work done for $90 shipped !
Its a blast from the past....it needs to be fretted right, not too forgiving, but when done right its sounds very pleasing......and has good intonation....
and yesterday I scored a Black Gretsch Jim Dandy at aPawn shop for $75 out the door.
