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

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?
