DetroitBlues Posted September 23, 2020 Posted September 23, 2020 So here is what remains of the factory floor we all used to be so familiar with....
skydog52 Posted September 23, 2020 Posted September 23, 2020 Front door from inside. You can see the wooden door and mandolin window.
tsp17 Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 sorry I never got to see the before times at 225. I feel like I've been there though - thanks to you all.
High Flying Bird Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 I can't count the number of good decent people I first met inside these walls.
rockabilly69 Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 Those pics look cool! Do you have any pics of the current factory workplace???

DetroitBlues Posted September 25, 2020 Author Posted September 25, 2020 Now for the good news. The reason for the pictures is the process is moving forward to renovate the space. Not sure exactly what the purpose is, but it could either be for Custom Shop or Museum. Its sad to see the space being bare, but its wonderful news knowing good things are coming.
skydog52 Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 Yes. Great News! Dan told me they had their best month last month. Good to hear.

I've heard the nation-wide lock down has led to a record year in guitar sales throughout the industry. I'm glad they are doing so well, fingers crossed they never lose that momentum.
skydog52 Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 For sure. I’ve posted this on my sight. Check it out. Some announcements will be made in regards to Heritage and Harmony. A virtual guitar show. https://guitar.com/live/

Some rather surprising like Ryan from 60 Cycle Hum. But Harmony sponsors him, so I'm not surprised either.
tbonesullivan Posted September 26, 2020 Posted September 26, 2020 Looks like there is still some paint removal to be done, but the building was seriously LONG overdue for a lot of things, especially considering the time period when it was made. I can't imagine how much asbestos was probably packed into everywhere, combined with decades of wood dust and other things. Hopefully the glory days will return.
bolero Posted September 26, 2020 Posted September 26, 2020 wow I bet it hasn't looked like in ~50 years or more!
