Up for sale is a 1960s True Tone / Kay Speed Demon, a classic vintage electric guitar known for its warm, woody tone, comfortable neck, and unmistakable retro styling. These models were sold under various department-store brands but were built by Kay in Chicago, and they’ve become sought-after for their unique vibe and old-school character.
