Kent Vintage Hollow Body Electric Acoustic Guitar.
Intact and functional but sold AS IS.

According to online research done so far, I have not found a way to date this guitar.  I would guestimate circa mid to late 1960's. This piece looks original and intact, but could certainly use some TLC.  This model has 2 matching pickups.  On one the cover is protruding a little to sometimes touch the strings.  I thought of using a little super glue to get it to stay down, but I'm holding off, depending on what a buyer may want to do.  ONE Control for Volume and one for tone.  They have been cleaned up and volume works So So & tone really doesn't seem to do much of anything .  Selector switches are slider style and turn pickups on/off, and they function well.  This has some pretty good cosmetic challenges, and neck is got a mild dip up towards the nut. It is set up and playing fair at present, though intonation is an issue.  Now if you play with a capo on fret 1 or 2, intonation is much better.  Neck joint looks solid and sound.  Does not come with case, but will be very well packed for safe travel.  See pics and let me know if you got questions.


I REALLY DID DO SOME SEARCHING FOR KENT INFO AND JUST COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING SOLID.  I DID OWN A KENT AMP YEARS AGO IN MY NASHVILLE DAYS.  GREAT SOUNDING TUBE AMP, I THINK BECAUSE IT WAS ON THE WAY OUT.  NOT EVEN SURE WHERE THAT THING IS NOW.  ANYWAYS, BACK THEN I HAD ONE DISCUSSION WITH SOMEONE WHO THOUGHT THE KENT AMPS CAME FROM WESTERN AUTO.  I'M MORE INCLINED TO THINK, THEY COULD BE HAD THROUGH GENERAL SUPPLIERS, SO STORES THAT MIGHT SALE SUCH THINGS AS MUSICAL GEAR, BUT HAD NO MAJOR BRAND NAMES, HAD ACCESS TO THESE.  IF ANY ONE OUT THERE HAS ANY HISTORY ON "KENT" PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SHARE.


PLEASE ask all questions before bidding and I'll do my best to answer them or say I don't know.
