I have a wonderful old early, higher end 1922 Oscar Schmidt Parlor guitar that I'm looking to sell to fund another purchase.
This is not to be confused with a later Harmony Stella guitar. The only thing they have in common is the name.
Top is red spruce and back and sides are quartered oak. It has recently had a neck reset and a new bridge added. Otherwise it's original. Has a really full, woody sound to it (logical since it's actually made of wood). Has a tiny nick on the fretboard under the 13th fret under the 1st string. Doesn’t affect playing at all. You can see it in pictures.
One thing I love about this guitar is the remnants of note overlays that someone had on there probably a century ago. They could be removed fairly easily if you don’t like them. I'm looking for $899. If you check Reverb, some of these sell for over 2K. Shipping would likely be about $100 fully insured, $125 if on the west coast.
