You guys of a certain age remember the Buck Owens guitars? The cheap old red, white and blue acoustics Sears used to sell? Younger whippersnappers may recall seeing one played by Pat Smear in Nirvana's "Unplugged" TV concert.
Well, they're back: http://www.sportsmansguide.com/cb/cb.asp?a=235167

I really like the site you found it at. :wink:
Yep. They're a big surplus dumper. I'm guessing the new Harmonies haven't been selling too well.

I heard Harmonies weren't all that good? Howver I always liked that guitar! Isaw it elsewhere at a much higher price!
Harmonies always were cheap guitars. Many of the old ones have suffered the various problems old guitars get, and come with actions way too high, cracks here and there, that sort of thing. They can be had cheaply, though, and a lot of blues players love cheap old guitars.
These new Harmonies are surely cheap Chinese guitars with laminated bodies, just like a zillion other brands. Take 'em for what they're worth. That red, white and blue one is a piece of nostalgia for Baby Boomers. (And Nirvana fans.) At $120, it's tempting. :D
