Vintage 1960 KAY Value Leader ELECTRIC Guitar SUNBURST Maple FRETBOARD Red Dots

Description: Vintage 1960 KAY Value Leader ELECTRIC Guitar SUNBURST Maple FRETBOARD Red Dots This is an early Kay Value Leader, 2 pickup electric guitar. My guess is it’s either 1960 or ’61.I purchased in a small town on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.I was told that it was owned by one person. He was a black bluesman and used this guitar for decades. I was told he played lots of slide on it. I found it in a shop that featured used items for the residents of a home for former military members. The lady who ran the store told me that the owner had died there, fairly recently. This was quite a few years ago. It was not in a case and the general condition shows that it was played a lot.The guitar sounds great when plugged in. The neck pickup is a bit louder than the pickup close to the bridge.The parts appear to be all original except for the pickup switch head. I have added a replacement.There is an issue with a segment of the binding non the back of the guitar. I considered fixing it, but decided not to, as it’s not my ability. It’s been photographed.I have taken a bunch of pictures. If you need extra specific pix, please let me know. I've tried to document as much as possible in the attached scans/photos.
