More From The Builder On the New Harmony Jupiter:
“The Harmony Jupiter has an air of familiarity, yet exudes a charm and elegance of its own. The soft edges, thoughtful armrest and body contours contribute to an inspiring experience – you don’t want to put the guitar down. The gold foil humbuckers and practical wiring layout mean that the player has everything they need to create a musical experience.”
It’s well built and finished, has a decent factory setup, and sounds great. It’s sold with a MONO brand padded gig bag.
Harmony dates back to 1892, was purchased by Chicago-based Sears, Roebuck &Co. in 1916. From the 1940s until closing in 1975 Harmony built millions of guitars, mandolins, banjos ukuleles and other instruments in the low, mid and professional ranges. These instruments were sold under a host of brand names including Silvertone, Stella, Harmony and Vogue. However, the increasing tides of low cost import models pushed Harmony into bankruptcy in 1975.
In 2018, Bandcamp Americas LLC purchased the name and assets and has begun offering new models like the Harmony Rebel Comet and Silhouette, built at a plant in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
