{"product_id":"1940-s-kay-archtop-531","title":"1940's Kay Archtop","description":"With it's 1940's styling, checker-board purfling, and tortoise-shell celluloid accents this is a seductively cool vintage archtop.  Built sometime in the 1940's, we suspect, this guitar is constructed entirely of Walnut: Neck, body, fingerboard, bridge - all the wooden parts are American Black Walnut.  Sunburst lacquer finish is a nice accent to the wood's naturally chocolaty-brown hue.  No cracks, and in beautifully preserved condition.  It has replacement Kluson tuners with aged buttons, and has nice action thanks to a recent neck reset.  The neck has excessive forward bow, so playing up past the 5th fret has buzzy results in a few spots - but if you're a cow-boy chord picker, this one's for you.\u003cbr\u003eNo case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sold\"\u003eSOLD\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"KAY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53610329997678,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/3660\/5550\/files\/kay__1207.jpg?v=1790963724","url":"https:\/\/folkwaymusic.com\/products\/1940-s-kay-archtop-531","provider":"Folkway Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
