SILVERTONE MODEL: JUPITER - K736L
STRATOTONE - circa 1961 - HARMONY
This is a mid 1960's Silvertone made by Harmony of Chicago. This is a similar to a Les Paul. This guitar is part of Harmony's Stratotone line. It has DeArmond pick ups, mother-of-pearl inlays on neck, and the "Blender" control which regulates the bass and treble pick ups. This guitar is 100% original except one bushing on a tuner has been replaced.Description from VintageSilvertones.com
The guitar is in very good condition. It does have some finish cracks (crazing) and the fretboard is worn slightly towards the headstock. The frets have some wear too but do not buzz. One tuner (G-string) is bent just a little bit. It was just set up (with pretty fast action) so it's ready to play.
Here's the original description from the 1961 Sears catalog:
