I can't say for sure if I've seen that particular model but Harmony amps were plentiful back in the '60s. That one probably sold for $50-$75 new. They were cheaply made electronics in a vinyl covered particle board box. Speakers were cheap too. Don't let the Jensen name fool you. They were not considered 'giggable' in the '60s but would probably do well today with a mic. Harmony targeted a market of beginner musicians just as many of the different branded Valco amps. My first amp was a three input, single ended Harmony with tremolo similar to that one. Heck, it could have been that model. I just don't remember.

This one has a power transformer and is a cut above some of their even lower priced 'practice' amps. And it practically looks brand new. The 'Buy it now' price seems excessive to me.

This amp in not in the same class as the amps you usually post info about.
A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!

Thanks Sluckey, When "VINTAGE" pops up here we tend to jump on it, as they are very scarce and the price is always high.
I have only put in an offer and it doesn't look like he's gonna take it.

This is one I just jagged and although this is only a pair of EL84s again hard to find and the one that you don't buy is the one you don't HAVE.  :help:

That H410A is a "cheap Champ". Yeah, it has trem, OTOH I'm sure Steve knows more than he wants to about particle-board amps. And Harmony didn't have a high-price model so they didn't have to make the low-price amp good to protect their "brand".

For 100 clams it may be what you want. For 400 clams you better already be in love with the sound and construction.
