Default Newer Harmony Electrics

Having not paid much attention to the electric side of things for 20 plus years, I was not aware until a few days ago that Harmony guitars are now being produced in the Heritage factory in Michigan. I think it's pretty cool, and the offset model with mini humbuckers has my attention. Anyone have any playing time on these new-ish Harmony models?

Don't really know much about the new Kalamazoo Harmonys, but IME Eastwood's Airline H44/H74/H77/H78 - and the recently-discontinued Jupiter - come very close in tone/spirit and market position/relative price to the Chicago originals, with better construction/materials/QC:

I'm sure the new Kalamazoo made Harmony guitars are of much better quality than the originals. Three solid bodies in the lineup with a semi hollow coming next. There are the usual You tube videos to be viewed but I have not played any of them as of now. I'm curious about the gold foil pickups and build quality.

$1200-$1300 for the solid body models. A semi hollow is coming but I haven't seen pricing on that one.
