1950's-60's Electric arch top made by Kay with Old Kraftsman logo. Has original pickup and electronics. Tone knob needs work volume knob fine and pickup sounds great. Non original tuners and a hole drilled in back of headstock for strap hook which I removed. Real binding and no cracks or repairs to guitar other than tuners changed. This guitar plays very nice for what it is and comes with a soft case.541-259-5573 or email back frm listing, ask for Tim, serious buyers please. $275

ReplyDeleteThank you.
You won't find any helpful serial numbers on the Kay made Old Kraftsman guitars. Your may have a model number stamped inside of one of the F-holes (if it has f-holes) but the best way to date the guitar is to look under the pickups for a date stamp or look at the manufacturers code on the volume or tone pots. If your guitar is a Value Leader or a Style Leader it would be made sometime between 1958 - 1965.
