Here's an incredibly rare KayKraft/Recording King Venetian Archtop guitar from circa 1932. All solid tone wood, USA made, and built with a cool device so adjusting the neck is a simple job. These were made by Kay in the early 30's and this one received a black Lacquer finish which is quite rare.

This guitar is in just fantastic structural condition, playing beautifully, string in CGDS. It has a replacement archtop bridge and tuners. I as a 23+" scale and a 12" radius fretboard, length is 38", 13 1/2 inch lower bout. Scratches and dents as pictured, the headstock logo missing it's color, and the front lacquer has lost some gloss. No pick guard.

Playing so sweetly with beautiful tone and a nimble attack.
