Knutsen Seattle Harp Guitar HGS6

The bass headstock again changes at this time (ca. 1911).
This is the first example of a harp guitar I've seen with the adjustable hinge brackets on a scooped-out neck. This seems to predate the Upper Right Point Harp Hawaiian guitars which all have a similar joint.
Additional photos and information can be found in From Harp Guitars to the New Hawaiian Family by Noe & Most.
