I have two Kay guitars (one is actually a Penncrest) but I love them both and I really do like their tone. They are both from about 1966-1967, just before Kay went out of business.
I envy you the use of the 1937 Kay. Post recordings of it, if you can.

Thanks! She belongs to my old man. If I could choose any one thing to inherit when he inevitably passes on, I'd skip his Mustang, I'd skip his airplane, I'd skip even his ridiculously well-preserved vinyl collection if it were necessary to have that guitar. This guitar taught my dad most of what he knows about guitar playing, and it was the first I ever laid hands on, and if anybody ever hurt it, I would kill them on the spot.
I'm not sure I can post recordings of her though, because I don't think my dad'll let me take her along to the studio when I record my demo in a couple of days. But I can definitely ask! And I'll post more pics later. You guys haven't even seen the headstock emblem's shadow or the absolutely CAKED-ON grime that this guitar has built up over the years. Seriously the grime is like 1mm thick in some places.

I might go and take pictures of all my dads old guitars. Then we can all have an old guitar orgy.

Of course considering the QC attitude to the music style in this video, there might be some who would say that United Airlines' baggage-handlers did a public service... :evil:
Patrick:
I usually tell the airlines that I could check my guitar in it's flight case, but that I would not, under any circumstances, sign their "ain't our fault if our baggage handlers fuck up your thousand-dollar instrument" form. I watched one of the handlers in Seattle throw my Jag + case onto the little slidey ramp thing for oversize baggage, and I chewed that fucker out good. Guy's lucky I didn't ask for his supervisor. I'd have loved to crack the case over that asshole's head.
Cernunnos:
Thankfully, it was a Fender Jaguar, and whatever doesn't kill it makes it stronger
