After a while the high action got to me so I played it less and less. It was my first guitar and I didn’t ask too many questions, just loved the tone and looks. I have a Harmony acoustic H6565N which I bought from a guitar shop in Farnham, Surrey around 1990. I have heard other experts argue for that interpretation of the F and S, though I don't have an opinion on the matter myself. Does anyone have any ideas about the 2 dates? An interesting thought for the author is that this example could provide evidence (not necessarily conclusive) to support the other theory that the F stands for first half and the S stands for second half of the year since the first half of 1962 comes after the second half of 1961 (whereas the spring of 1961 is separated from the fall of 1962 by over a year). I could not find any information so far about why it would have 2 dates, though I could speculate. One says S-61-MO (or MD) and the other says F-62-JC.

It has the long number/letter series that includes the model (H625) and 2 smaller groups of numbers in different locations. I have a Harmony acoustic guitar branded as a Silvertone that apparently has 2 different dates stamped on the inside back of the guitar (visible through the sound hole). Your guitar needs an electronics evaluation and cleaning.Don't replace any vintage components unless you absolutely have to.This can be a variety of things from dead capacitors, dirty potentiometers, shorted wires, and even dead pickups.There is no sound coming from the electronics.

As string tension and climate shift the wood in a guitar, they inevitably need the neck to be steamed off and a new angle carved relative to the body.The strings are too high off the fretboard.Your guitar needs a fretboard planing and refret or more ideally a truss rod installation.Most Harmony guitars lack adjustable truss rods (or rods that still work) and so forward bow cannot be easily repaired.The strings are buzzy or the neck is bowed.Frets are like tires on your car, they need replacing after being used a lot.Do not shove glue in there or drive a screw through the heel.The neck heel is pulling away from the body.Your guitar needs proper humidity and cleats.Do not try to fill the cracks with glue or put clamps on the guitar to press it together.This occurs when an instrument is exposed to a climate different than the ideal (70 degrees Fahrenheit and 45-50% humidity) and the wood has shrunk.
