I have had a serious jones for lo-fi cool and el cheapo chic guitars for alot of decades now - particularly the small body, round sound hole guitars.

My two favorites (at least for the moment).

1936 Kay Deluxe Venetian
I have had this one a long time. This is one of the last of the Kay Krafts - a fixed neck slot head.



and my latest gem - 1935 Kay Deluxe K-2.
This one has the Zorzi adjutsable neck (betcha thought Bob Taylor invented that one). A wicked slide guitar (photos courtesy of the folks I got it from)



Close up of the shim on which the guitar neck slides to adjust the angle - and no lie - this thing really works.
