There is a lot to  be said about this banjo guitar. For starters, I am selling this instrument as a non functional piece of art. It currently is not playable and I do not know the extent of work that is required to make it playable. Replacement parts up to and including a new neck may be required. It doesn't play in tune, there are lots of rattle noises when the strings are picked. Basically, like I previously said, in its current state, this banjo is good for decoration. I don't know the ... more

Hi, this listing is for a great old Kay Kraft Venetian style mandolin. It is in pretty good shape for it's age. I purchased it along with a few others from a local estate. I believe it is missing the pickguard. Otherwise it seems to be pretty original. I have it set up with light strings and it sounds good. The action is slightly high, but very playable. The neck seems OK. I think at some point the previous owner reglued the heel of the neck and you can see a bit of glue there and a ... more

Exceptionally clean early / mid-50s Kay all mahogany archtop (laminates). All original parts except for bridge base. Strong glossy finish throughout. Very small gap at heel (barely fits a business card), but joint is rock solid and angle is just fine. More like a little creep over the decades, or some difference in shrinkage and expansion between the different pieces of wood. Fretboard is almost 100% flat, with just a little but tolerable extra relief. Guitar probably spent some of its life ... more

Travel back in time with this old mandolin. I think, because of the laminated top, that it was made by the late, great Kay Musical Instrument Company in Chicago. From its looks, I believe it's from about the 1950s, maybe 1960s
It has the original rosewood adjustable bridge and a cool-looking celluloid pickguard. Tailpiece with tailpiece cover. Oddly, for a budget mandolin, somebody grafted a different headstock on it.
Somebody did a poor repair by trying to screw the neck heel ... more

Branded S S. Maxwell, I believe this was made by the Kay Musical Instrument Company in the mid-1930s. It's a resonator guitar with a biscuit bridge. The resonator is stamped with a November 15th, 1932 patent number 1887861. Schireson patented resonator system that apparently is slightly different than the National-Dobro resonator system. I've seen a few different S S. Maxwell resonator guitar models online, but this is the fanciest model that I've seen. It has a pearloid headstock ... more

If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. The strings are all nice and tight and it plays as it should. There are some letters that someone a long time ago wrote in red ink on the guitar.

Fabulous vintage short-scale bass guitar modelled on the iconic Rickenbacker 4001 in need of a little TLC.
Put together by Teisco in the 'lawsuit' era Far East, this rare bass is a charming thing. It features a nifty 30" scale length that complements the satisfyingly hefty feel of the thing.

This bass has plenty of age related patina, commensurate with fifty ... more

This was my first lockdown project! This beautiful and very original Kay KB24 bass guitar was stripped down and the neck sanded to bare maple and given several coats of Tung Oil - super smooth! - (Food and human safe)
Pots and pickups cleaned for smooth tone and volume transition and the body was carefully restored too
New strings and Nut of course. It has since picked up a couple of small scratches on the back which was a bit annoying because otherwise it's pretty much perfect!
