Silvertone by Kay (K-11)

Picture
I still love the old stuff.  We found this at Sam Ash
in Indianapolis recently.  Luckily for me it needed
a few minor repairs and so was undervalued I thought.
It has a 1.875" wide neck over an inch thick.  Talk about
a baseball bat neck, this is a Louisville Slugger!  The big
neck is arrow straight and this thing sounds great.


Holiday House Brand

More "new" old stuff.  Headstock says Holiday but the books will call it a Harmony Stratatone Variant.  I call it the cousin of the Ogallala guitar, because I bought one in Ogallala, Nebraska 20 years ago.  Had to pay 10 times what I paid for that one. Oh well.  This one is in remarkably good condition. A closet classic w/ossc, neck is dead straight, plays and sounds just like a Harmony Stratatone.

My wife and daughter gave me a surprise party for my 40th birthday.  A buddy showed up with this basket case uke. No bridge, loose back, etc.  Its been on the wall for 26 years, and I decided this winter to bring it back to life.  Five cents worth of glue, a couple of hours labor and a new bridge from Stew Mac and she's as good as new. No, better than new.  Mother of Toilet Seat fingerboard, fun to hold and play and a great sounding uke. Thanks, Roy!
