Man, this is extremely tempting even though I already have a Harmony baritone, and just got one for my mom. That uke us an utter creampuff. Beautiful!!!

For anyone interested, these have got to be some of the best sounding baritones out there. They play like butter. I keep mine strung up with Martin fluorocarbons. Sound pretty good to me.

Had you tried to sell this a month ago, I would have snatched it up immediately.

I believe the fretboard and bridge of these 50's Harmonys are Brazilian Rosewood. Favilla used Brazilian Rosewood on their baritones until 1964 according to Tom Favilla.
