I always wanted to point this out on the later Sears Harmony or Silvertone Guitars. You'll see lots of people refer to these as "spacedot" or "atom" or even "atomic" because of the headstock logo. What I want to show you is it's actually just the letter S for Sears
and the letter R for Roebuck.
So you see, the spacedot or atomic is just a fancy graphic for Sears and Roebuck. This symbol was used on many of the acoustic and electric guitars sold at Sears starting around the early 1970's.

Nice vintage find, I like vintage guitars but just for display purposes, I like to keep one for my viewing pleasure. I used to play with electric one, but I started with acoustic when I was first learning to play guitar.
This one would make a great display, it's very nice and wasn't scratched up like some older models I've found.
Hi All , I just picked up a steel string SR Atom 306-1295 Japan. It is in fair condition and a lot of fun to play. Carmine
