For sale:
1959 Kay Electric Guitar. Semi hollow body electric guitar. Two single-wound pickups. Pickup and pickguard covers are made of copper. Curly Maple, Tobacco Sunburst. Rosewood fretboard. Guitar is original. Neck is straight. Electronics work. Took it by Real Guitars in SF and they told me not to change a thing. Name is "Style Leader"... Was an upgrade over the "Value Leader" line which had chrome pickups and pickguards. Basically an awesome blues guitar. Think Jimmy Rogers or the re-issue that T-Bone Burnett is playing with Robert Plant/Krauss right now. Great tone. I'll take the best offer or trade for a telecaster. There are none of these copper ones for sale ever.
