The Department Store Guitar

The Department Store Guitar

Today in Tedium: Every guitar player probably remembers their first axe, whether it’s a hand-me-down discard from a previous generation, the music store rental, the Pawn Shop special or the rare brand new instrument. My first guitar was a 1963 instrument my dad purchased from Sears (then abandoned in a closet until I discovered it at age 14) and is long lost to time, though its replacement does have ties to the company (more on that later). In today’s Tedium, we’ll take a look at the legacy of the Sears guitar and the Harmony Company, along with a playing a few other harmonies of our own along the way.
