 This is a Kay K592 body with a neck from a different Kay.
I want to emphasize that the neck is not currently playable...although I was using it as a bottleneck guitar since the lower frets work fine.

What you're getting is a loaded Kay body with functional electronics (see below) and a neck that you can either repair or replace.

Just want to make sure the buyer understands this 100%, so that there are no disappointments or "item not as described" claims upon delivery.

The neck has a hump, and would require some work before it could be made playable. A trussrod adjustment won't fix this.
There are extra bolt holes in the back of the neck (only visible when you remove the neck) showing that it was originally mounted on a different guitar.
Personally, I would just replace it entirely (I believe a Harmony 3-bolt neck would work here as well).

The treble side cutaway has an open seam which is structurally sound (it doesn't move at all, and would be easy enough to fill and touch up if desired) - see the last photo.
There are some minor bumps and dings and some finish checking (quite nice, actually). None of the knobs are original. No pickguard. No case.

Here's the good news:
All the controls work as they should (there are volume and tone pots for each pickup, and a three-way rotary switch on the upper bout) and the two Kay "speedbump" pickups were rewound by Lindy Fralin - they sound fantastic. The pickups alone are worth at least $150.
This is an easy project, but I just don't have the time or the space, and I am taking the fact that I snoozed through the last few auctions on viable Kay necks as a sign from the heavens that I should pass this along to someone with a little more motivation and initiative.
