Your guitar was built by Kay. In the Kay catalogs it is known as model 1962 and was produced from 1960-65. It was part of the Value Thinline Series and came in 1, 2 and 3 pick up versions. Your model isn't an exact match to the 1962 (the pickguard is a bit different) but it is similar in most respects. Just a "Silvertoned" version of a Kay. The only Sears catalog I have from the early 60's is the 1964 and your instrument isn't listed. I bet if you scour the early 60's Sears catalogs you'll find the exact year they offered it.  sbStatistics: Posted by VintAxe — Sun Apr 27, 2008 3:04 pm
