Found Buried In Friend's Closet

Don Crowl · From: Medford, Oregon, USA

Can anyone tell me the brand of steel this is & any other information? Notice the music note embossed on the tuning head. One of tuning keys crystallized & will not work. Any idea of the value?

It's a modified Harmony H-5, late '40s to mid '50s.

Glenn Wilde · From: California, USA

If its got that P13 pickup under that cover, that's where the value is.

Thank you gentlemen. That is helpful. Nice finish on the one pictured by you Noah. That leads me to wonder what is under the very poor paint job on the closet find. I am ignorant about pick ups, Glenn.
Since I took the picture I was gifted the guitar. I hope to find some replacement tuners and also to take off the pick up cover and see what is there.

You can buy replacement buttons for the tuners: https://www.stewmac.com/parts-and-hardware/tuning-machines/tuner-parts/vintage-style-tuner-knobs
