Harmony / Roy Smeck Grand Concert Hawaiian Guitar Spruce Cuban Mahogany / 1930 / Guitar For Sale

This rare Harmony was named after the legendary musician Roy Smeck, known as “The Wizard of the Strings” and a pioneer of Hawaiian steel guitar music. Roy Smeck was one of America’s first true guitar heroes and made his mark in the 1920s and 1930s with his virtuosic playing on various stringed instruments. Harmony, at the time one of Chicago’s largest guitar manufacturers, recognized his talent by offering him a signature model. This model was produced only in 1930, making it an exceptionally rare find. It is very lightly built and also stands out because of its ‘Airplane’ rosewood bridge. This bridge, also called the Lindbergh bridge, was shaped after the plane Charles Lindbergh used to cross the ocean. After more than 90 years, this Roy Smeck remains in very good condition. It has been well cared for and maintained, making it very comfortable to play today. It has received a neck reset and a refret. In addition, two cracks on the top have been repaired and stabilized with cleats. The sound that comes from this compact guitar is simply enchanting! It produces quite a bit of volume when strumming chords, but truly shines in fingerstyle playing. Its dry, clear tone will inspire you to keep playing for hours on end. For the collector or the player searching for something truly unique, this is an opportunity that does not come around often. Comes in a Hiscox case with a TFOA passport.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
