Silvertone H-1429 w/ Gig Bag (Vintage - 1960s)
Silvertone H-1429 w/ Gig Bag (Vintage - 1960s)
The Silvertone H 1429 was one of the more ambitious guitars in the Silvertone lineup around 1960. Built by Harmony in Chicago, it features a thin hollowbody design, sunburst finish, bound body, F holes, and a rosewood fingerboard with pearloid block inlays.
What really sets this guitar apart is its electronics. It's equipped with three DeArmond Gold Foil pickups, each with its own volume and tone controls and individual on/off switch. That's an unusual amount of control for a guitar of this era, allowing for all sorts of pickup combinations and tonal possibilities. The DeArmond pickups have a distinctive bright, punchy sound that works particularly well for blues, garage rock, and vintage inspired tones.
The H 1429 has also found fans among more modern players, including Jack White and Dan Auerbach. A great choice for someone looking for an American made vintage hollowbody with a little more going on than your typical two pickup setup. Includes a gig bag.
