Like this one of mine in 1965. Forget what happened to the guitar - what happened to all the hair???!!!

Hi Ian, A pal of mine in Wolvo has one of these Harmony's and he is giving me first refusal when he sells, you can have a go with it if and when.( He bought it from Beatties early 60's)

A bit off topic, but in the 60's I worked for a builders merchant in Stoke Newington, my manager was a nice chap by the name of Sid Hayman, one day he asked if I fancied running a little errand for him, always pleased to get out of the building for a break I of course said yes.

He then presented me with a guitar case and said it had to go back to the maker - Grimshaw - for some work, it was his sons.

His son played in a semi pro band, around Enfield I would imagine as that's where he lived, they were just about to cut a record but for what ever reason, said son left the band - musical differences!!

Well the song roared up the charts minus the young Hayman, the song, A Whiter Shade of Pale

Such is life
