I have this instrument on consignment, we agreed a target price and I have listed it in line with that target
The action could use some work, it's not my guitar to modify, but I think the neck is shimmed) removing might help. Also the bridge is not original, so I am thinking it is too high. Sand it down? Use a different bridge? The neck is flat so truss rod adjustment wont do much
Sorry - No gig bag or hard case

Good condition with plenty of dings and scratches. The paint is chipped and missing in some areas. That being said, it plays and sounds awesome. The neck is straight, and the action is pretty good. You could probably get it lower, but you would have to cut the slots deeper or find a lower bridge. Great affordable vintage guitar. Includes original case. Please email questions.

PRO SERVICE AND SET UP! PLAYERS DREAM!!
This is a VINTAGE 1960's TRUETONE SPEED DEMON ELECTRIC GUITAR. Model K-573. It was made in the USA by KAY. They were branded TRUETONE and distributed through the WESTERN AUTO COMPANY. At least one of the original Speed Bump pickups has a 1964 date code, so I assume the guitar and PU's were made in 1964. This guitar is complete and all original. I have replaced the bottom strap button, original is broken and included. PLAYS GREAT! SOUNDS ... more

'65 DeArmond Silver Foil Pickup (11 6K)
Aluminum Bridge
Original (style) Tailpiece
VIPots 500K
Multi-Contact Jack
Klusom ... more
