1959 Martin 000-18 vs. Baxendale Conversions X Brace Converted 1960s Harmony H162 Comparison

In this video Scott Baxendale of Baxendale Conversions compares a 1959 Martin 000-18 to a1960s Harmony H162 rebuilt and converted from ladder bracing to X bracing by Baxendale Conversions using Baxendale Conversions' own X brace design. www.StayGoldGuitars.com
The Harmony conversion is a process by which we take old USA-made Harmony and Kay guitars and remanufacture them using our proprietary bracing and internal design, giving the guitars a new life and a world class tone that compares to vintage guitars of the highest order. This re-manufacturing process allows us to create a guitar that is also green, recycling and repurposing by starting with an existing guitar that was originally made with quality woods, and requiring no finish work. These are great guitars that retain their vintage patina and mojo at a price that the average musician can afford.
Many musicians have an old Harmony or Kay laying around that was their first instrument. Some have sent them to us to be rebuilt, and these guitars subsequently became their favorite instrument! Many of our customers are professional recording artists and musicians. If you would like to purchase a remade Harmony or Kay, have one rebuilt, or have one to sell, contact us at www.staygoldguitars.com.
