goffman Posted October 21 Share Posted October 21 (edited) Kay K-162 short scale semi hollow bass. Reissue of the 50s models but with a centre block to help with feedback in loud live situations. Great fun bass to play, has the original flatwounds on that sound lovely and warm through the single coil pickup. Toggle switch to bypass the tone control useful useful for quick tone changes, originally used so bass players could switch from electric to "upright" sounds. Bought from a fellow bass-chatter at the start of the year and had loads of fun playing and recording with it, but moving it on to clear a bit of room. Basstheworld vid below gives a good description of the instrument and its many uses. Great secret weapon for studio work and comes with the original case in good condition as well as the accessories inside. Cash on collection from SE London (near Crystal Palace). Offers welcome, of course. Would consider trades for a black JMJ mustang or other short scale delights! But also any trade offers considered.
