This listing is for a vintage Harmony H160E acoustic-electric dreadnought guitar, manufactured in Korea and designed with an integrated pickup system and two potentiometers for on-instrument tone and volume control. The H160E model is known for its classic dreadnought body shape, strong projection, and warm tonal character, making it a desirable piece for collectors, restorers, and players who appreciate vintage Harmony instruments.
This guitar features a traditional acoustic top paired with an early electric pickup setup, allowing it to be played both acoustically and amplified. The body retains its vintage finish and natural patina, consistent with instruments from this era. The neck is comfortable and playable, and all electronics, including the two control knobs, appear intact.
Please note the following defects:
• Upper string holder (nut area) damage – The far-left portion of the holder that secures the first string is missing. As a result, the first string cannot be properly seated or held in place. A repair or replacement of this component will be required for full functionality.
• Lower dreadnought body distortion – The lower right side of the body shows visible distortion. This structural irregularity does not make the guitar unrecognizable, but it is notable and may require inspection by a luthier depending on the buyer’s intended use.
This Harmony H160E is offered as a vintage instrument suitable for restoration, display, or parts. It is a rare Korean-made model with a classic acoustic-electric design, and with proper repairs, it has the potential to be a strong performer once again. If you are looking for a restoration project or a collectible Harmony model, this guitar provides an authentic vintage platform.
