I really dig the Harmony Comet and the gold foil pickups. It’s become one of my main guitars.

[@JameyArent]

It’s a vibe machine for sure!

[@dylanandrewguitar]

Great

[@JameyArent]

Thanks!

[@timothydesoto1707]

[@billyclub9863]

Tell us about the Harmony. Reminds me of a Rickenbacker.
Clapton uses Freddie's lick a lot

[@JameyArent]

It's a Harmony Comet...really cool little semi-hollow built in Kalamazoo, MI. Gold foil humbuckers too!

[@user-dd6ng1wn1b]

So on the Albert King lick, what is the note you hit just before the G?

[@JameyArent]

Eb precedes the G at the end.

[@yoyo2323F9]

Having a hard time doing the vibrato on the bend , any tips? Vibrato on single notes is no issue

[@JameyArent]

Just shake that string! Quickly move your fingers up and down...almost like mini bends.

[@yoyo2323F9]

@@JameyArent thank you so much, I guess my fingers aren’t quite strong enough yet 🥲

[@hazor777]

I like em all , but I think the Freddie King lick has a bit more of that “human voice” characteristic to it
Just my opinion, though
