The Harmony Comet is breath of fresh air! 

They are quite distinctive. Thanks so much for watching.

I got one of these in an unexpected trade offer and had never heard of them. Looked them up and became curious. Once I laid hands on it, I was blown away. I don't know how they make them in the US at this price point with these features. Ironically, my least favourite part is the pickups. I'm replacing them with "proper" goldfoils. They're not bad pickups, they just really aren't to my taste (I'm a single coil guy).

Very low production numbers. Meditating on getting one. 🙏🏼 🎸

Thanks so much. It is a cool little thing.

I’ve never owned one of the old ones but feedback issues don’t surprise me in the least. I have owned Supro and Kay from that era and the pickups on those guitars were microphonic as hell. Couple that with a pretty good size hollow guitar and, well, there ya go. LOL. Thanks so much for watching.

@@leonardgriffieblues5845 I thank you for your fine Videos. Regards from Germany. 👍🏻

Very cool guitar. Thanks for watching.

I think you need one. 😆

Thank you my friend. Appreciated.

Thanks so much. Yes they are. Check their website for dealers.

Thankfully the one I featured had no issues at all. In fact the fretwork was quite nice overall. But yeah, reviewing guitars I deal with prickly fret ends all the time. Good news is, once fixed, I’ve never seen the problem reappear. Thanks so much for watching.

Thank you so much.

Thanks so much.

Thanks so much. You take care as well.

Early 80s Ibanez semi hollows are fine guitars. Thanks so much for watching.

Thanks my friend

Nice. Those look cool. I’d consider reviewing one but they don’t seem to be currently available. Hopefully that’ll change. Thanks so much for watching.

Thank you so much. I’m very happy you enjoy my videos. As to the Gibson question, that’s a very tough one to answer. They’re generally doing a good job these days, though absolute perfection isn’t something I typically expect. Little cosmetic flaws are common even with Custom Shop guitars. I think the regular USA line is priced fairly considering the cost of manufacturing in the USA. And all the Gibsons I’ve owned and played have sounded right. The factory setups are more consistent than they’ve been for a long time, but still not always quite perfect in the way, say, most USA PRS guitars are. I would say, if you’ve always wanted a Gibson you’ll more than likely be happy, and they retain value better than most brands. If what you’re after is the sound and feel of a Gibson but don’t care about the headstock logo, Heritage guitars are built really well and cost a little less. I hope that at least gives you food for thought.

@@leonardgriffieblues5845 Aah ok. Thanks for your answer. I will try to see with my seller later. It's not possible for me before June. Perhaps Prs usa. But they are my two first electric guitar and i won't buy another. The choice is difficult but because of most of your quality tests and playing touch on more and more guitars, i prefered ask you about that before. Thank you very much. 😊

Sorry if I wasn’t clear. The point I was making was simply that, due to it’s very different construction - no centerblock, carved rather than laminated body, unique pickups - it’s no 335 clone. Nothing to do with quality, the quality is great. But buy it for its own character. There are loads of semi hollows that are basically some version of a 335 or 339, this ain’t one of them. This has its own thing going.

@@leonardgriffieblues5845 Oh ok. Got you. This is a good thing in my opinion. Like you said, there are enough 335 clones. But so it has no center block, single-coil-ish sound or P90-is. This is more like a Casino Coupe then than 335 at least on paper? Is it that small as well?

Yes, it’s pretty small. It actually surprised me how small it is when I got it in my hands.

@@leonardgriffieblues5845 Yes. I was pretty much set on buying one till I found out it wasn't 335 size. Pity.
