The K-25 features mahogany body with a spruce top with an unusual \"Schmoo\" shaped soundhole and screw-on pickguard. The expansive top is ladder braced and carries a subtle sunburst finish. The neck is big and chunky, with a very grainy rosewood fingerboard inlaid with a large dot pattern. This example was sold not through Kay themselves but the Speigel catalog company, and carries their in-house \"Old Kraftsman\" brand on the headstock stencil. A cool and fairly unique 1950's guitar, and a nice example\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOverall length is 43 in. (109.2 cm.), 17 1\/16 in. (43.3 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 4 1\/4 in. (10.8 cm.) in depth at side, taken at the end block. Scale length is 25 3\/4 in. (654 mm.). Width of nut is 1 11\/16 in. (43 mm.). Appears all original except tuners (repro Kluson) with some average wear (mostly to the top-one large armwear rub and numerous small dings and pick scratches). Has had a neck set, still a medium playing action but this guitar has a big sound that really responds to a vigorous strum.
