This is a Silvertone 1446L made by Harmony of Chicago in 1965. It is a black, single cutaway, thinline, maple, semi-hollow body electric guitar with two Gibson Mini-P90 pickups, an ebonized fingerboard with rectangular mother-of-pearl inlays, a Bigsby vibrato tailpiece, an adjustable rosewood bridge, white binding with a stripe inlay, raised white plastic pickguard, two f-holes and two plastic strap pins, white on the bottom and black on the upper bass bout. This instrument plays wonderfully and sounds great. It is such a classy and beautiful looking guitar, that even, the ever stylish, Chris Isaak plays one of these. There is a rumor that Harmony made guitars for Gibson for a while in the mid-1960's and it's believed this is the same guitar. Apparently, Gibson traded pickups for guitar bodies with Harmony so that is how this came to have the mini-P90's. Whatever the situation, this particular guitar looks fanstastic for a fifty year old instrument. It comes with an original, two tone, hard shell case. Grab it while you can.Description from VintageSilvertones.com
