Fender Goldfoils WHAT WHAT WHAAAAAAT

[Doug]

Getting more silvertone/harmony vibe from the JM. At this point I would rather buy a Harmony Silhouette. More interesting, probably lighter.

100% strong Harmony Silhouette/Bobkat vibes, feel like they're just straight-up ripping off the recent reissue:

So these beauties are current, or recent, models? What are the specs on the pups? -Doug, Atlanta, Georgia,

Never mind. I just found these Harmonys on Youtube. Humbuckers with cosmetic gold foil, yeah? -Doug

Seems that Seymour Duncan are offering gold cases for their pickups now, so you don't need to deal with this shite.

Hey Doug, it definitely seems like they're goldfoil in cosmetics only, yeah; only one model they do has a non-humbucker which seems to just be a P90 with a similar treatment:

The genre of funny shaped Epiphones is well and alive.

My 1960 Harmony Stratotne Jupiter has the original D'Armond Goldfoils. The neck is 10 ohms and the bridge is 10.8. Not sure if these can be mass produced today. The metals, the wiring, or the winding, any one of these might be obsolete.

The website isn't allowing me to copy & paste my photo... suggestions?
