Description
Kay Bass Viol, M1B Model, 1964 Serial Number 49205
Super clean Kay M1B (B for blonde) double bass, well maintained, no issues. The Kay M1B is a bit of a deluxe model with nicely flamed outer plys, violin corners and painted double purfling.
Very original – has had the neck set modified for projection, otherwise no signs of trauma ever. Rosewood fingerboard and nice matching Kay tailpiece. If you’re looking for a thumpy, mellow Kay – this is not the bass. This Kay is bright and rings loud – big plywood fun. You won’t find one cleaner, still a young pup at 57.
