Kay Double Cut Through Neck 70 or 80s

Description

This one I'd rather keep so i'll see how the interest is :-) This is a rare early- 70s or 80s Kay Double Cut (similar but maybe a bit more rounded than a Gibson Les Paul Double Cut) with Through-Neck construction.

Most likely Korean build quality but happy for someone to tell me it's actually Japan.

Brass nut, bridge and even the truss rod cover.

Some information I found on line -
'A stunning and very hard-to-find Kay double-cutaway from the early 1980s, built in Korea during the famed Cort-factory period. These MIJ-style MK-era Korean builds are known for exceptional craftsmanship, and this one is no exception: neck-through construction, brass hardware throughout, an ebony fingerboard, and a natural finish that really shows off the multi-ply maple/walnut laminations.

This is a serious player’s guitar disguised as a rare collectible—high output zebra humbuckers, string-through body, and the kind of singing sustain only a thru-neck, brass-loaded build can deliver. Alongside the 3-way pickup selector, a dedicated phase-switch adds extra tonal options for cutting, funky, or hollowed tones.

Completely original, exceptionally clean, and showing some playwear. Amazing condition concidering its age.

Some Specs;

Maple double-cutaway body w/ walnut stripes
5-piece maple/walnut neck-through construction
Ebony fingerboard w/ triple brass dot inlays
21 medium-jumbo frets (excellent condition)
24 ¾" scale, 12" radius
2× original high-output humbuckers (zebra)
Hardtail brass bridge + brass nut and saddles
Chrome tuners
Controls: 2× Volume, 2× Tone
3-way mini-switch (pickup selection)
2-way mini-switch (phase inversion)
Natural gloss finish

More photos on request - ideally collection but can meet in Dublin D15 area.

@Aeuah103: OK send me photo but needs to be a known brand as pickups and tuners get changed all the time in guitars.
