Description: Interesting unlabeled 16” blonde archtop, very likely made by Kay c. 1950 for one of their subsidiary brands (Tempo, Kamico, Playtime, etc.). Fantastic condition. Solid spruce top and maple body. Neck set and angle are spot on, and fretboard is straight. Seams are tight all around. Light playing wear at most. All original parts, including a gorgeous pickguard. Nice player with good frets that show only minimal wear. Decent jangly tone. Offered with an interesting but non-original stiff canvas case. NOTE: USA regulations under the CITES convention (trade in endangered species) have finally been loosened to allow easy international shipping of vintage instruments, unless they contain BRAZILIAN r******d (Dahlbergia nigra). The bridge is not r******d, but unfortunately the fretboard may be Brazilian. Therefore, this guitar still cannot be shipped internationally without an expensive and time consuming permit process. UPDATE: Ebay now demands that we sellers give THIRTY DAYS for returns. Any honest buyer will know within a few days whether there is any need for a return. I no longer take returns through Ebay, but I will never "stick" another musician with a guitar. Please contact me if there any problems, and we'll work it out.
