Description

Here’s a beautifully preserved piece of American bass history: a 1947 Kay Swingmaster in remarkably clean condition. The blonde finish glows with vintage character, and the instrument shows just how good these classic Kays can be when they’ve been well cared for.
Usually, when you find a Kay this clean, it’s a much later example, so to see a 1940s Swingmaster in this kind of condition is very special.

This double bass is structurally solid with a healthy top and everything in good working order, and stands out among its peers. Before delivery, it will receive a full Upton Bass setup and inspection, including any needed bridge or fingerboard work, ensuring it plays its absolute best.

A exceptional example of a postwar Kay, ready for another generation of swing, roots, and jazz players to enjoy.
