What guitar is this?
Hey guys, I've been really digging Lee Fields and the Expressions lately--particularly the guitar player's tone. I'm trying to identify what guitar he's got. Can anyone identify it from these photos?









Thanks in advance!

Harmony H74. I always liked the strange cutaway on the bass side.

I love my Harmony Rocket! Really cool "Gretsch" kind of tone. Records great.

It's cool to see someone playing the H74 in a pro context.

He plays with the Dap Kings and the Budos Band. Really cool guy, great tone. I did a show with him this past summer. We were talking about old ampegs for a while after the set. That guitar is awesome.
