I'm pretty sure I'm right about the Kay also. Nothing else is even all that similar. The electronics probabl aren't original to the body, though. This Kay would have been post-kleenex pickups. Also, the body was originally a one pickup, given that there's no hole for a selector (even though there's a hole everywhere else. lol.) Either way, I'm building the ultimate surf guitar out of it. Keeping the pickups, making a custom-shaped white pearl pickguard, painting the body seafoam green, bigsby vibrato, and matching neck with white pearl headstock overlay. It's gonna be one groovy axe. i'll post pics as the project goes.
