  Not a good sign thus far. I've never heard of the brand. So I wouldn't buy it hoping for much resale value. Try it if it plays well, not much harm in buying it.

  Hi there Henrik. I'm from Scotland too and I have some information on Harmsworth & Willis for you. They were hand built in the Phillipines by a relation of Mike Harmsworth and they were imported into the UK in small batches by Mike and his business partner Nev Willis. I think they ran the business for about 8 or 9 years and they were quite simply fantastic guitars for the money. I've owned 2, an oval hole and a d hole. I only sold them because I had accumulated too many. For £300 it's a no brainer - for me at any rate. Good luck.

  Agreed £300 is a steal. Very decent guitars in my experience

  Even with a repair?

  Depends what the repair is but if it’s a slight one as you said then yes it’s good value.

  Hows the tone, volume and playability?

  On the video JIMMY IS BACK we see his manager giving him a guitar made by Harmsworth and Willis.

  He tries the guitar in parking lot and then we see him playing it in concert.

  Any thoughts?

  Repaired crack shows up from some angles and not others. It is reinforced inside with cleats

  I'd buy it even with the repaired crack.

  What would a guitar like this cost new?
