I haven't seen these, and to be honest I'm not keen. I have seen some nice vintage Kay's but I don't like the look of those reissues...

way tooo fucking expensive. i think they are made in china, too. you could find a real one for that.

i almost got one for 450 a few years ago but i didnt know what it was. fuuuuuck.

EDIT- also, it says "The Thin Twin got its name from its two Blade pickups," and thats sort of true, except in reality those are just the tip of the iceberg, if you will. the windings and shit are actually wide underneath the top, and just an ornamental little extrusion is visible thru a slash in the top.

i wonder if they repro'd them right. might just be a case of some clueless shit in marketing writing bullshit about a guitar hes never seen before based on the pictures and some press kit.
