It’s perfect for collectors and players alike.

This model is the same high-end quality as the Mighty Harmony H76. Same general specs too! It features Harmony at its finest in design and overall aesthetic. We can only imagine what kind of Space-Age monicker this model would have had it made its way into the Harmony Catalog, but alas, it was mfd. for Silvertone and heralds 4 numbers. 1454. But don’t let that distract you. This model represents some of the finest appointments Harmony ever manufactured. Features include Features include 6 lbs. 12.9 oz Weight with a Full Length of 39 15/16”, 15 ¾” Lower Bout and 2” Deep; Fully Arched “Tone Chamber” Thin-Line Body with Single Cutaway; Center and Neck Block Support; Curly Maple All Around (laminates); Hand Polished Nitro Finish; 5-Ply Top Binding; Fully Adjustable and Working “TORQUE-LOK” Truss System; 1-Piece 24” Scale 3-Ply Fully Bound 12” Radius Maple Neck; Brazilian Rosewood Fingerboard with Depth of .940” 1st and .987” 10th; 20 Frets with 7 Large Pearloid Block Markers Accompanied by 7 Black Dot Side Markers; .088” Silver Nickle Fret Wire; 1 ¾” Plastic Nut to 2” at 12th; Individual Waverly Stich-Line Tuners; Bigsby B3 Tremolo System; and Floating, Height Adjustable Brazilian Rosewood Bridge with Plastic Cap.

For the video demo, the action is 1/16th 1st to slightly below 1/8” at 12th. It has perfect relief and can go any direction you require. Rest assured, this is an excellent playing and sounding guitar. 

The Triple DeArmond S-Grille Silver Foil Pickups are astounding. All three hitting 11kΩ! This Silvertone 1454 has exceptionally powerful and clear output. The entire harness is 100% Factory Stock guaranteed with CTS 1MΩ Volume and 250kΩ Tone Mini Potentiometers. 

The hardware is perfect and also 100% Factory Stock. The 4-ply Beveled Tortoise Celluloid Pickguard barely has a mark on it. You gotta’ Love the Transparent Amber Mini-cup Knobs. The only fault we can comment on this Silvertone 1454 is that the body edge pickguard screw is non-original. The detailed photographs sum up the rest. 

The original Geib plush rayon interior case has slight wear on top body area and the leather center back strap is torn. Otherwise, it is in excellent shape.
