No problem. He was one of the nicest guys I ever met.

Hey Yodacaster, does the Kay have a "zero" fret? If it does it might help with the intonation. My Supro has a "zero" fret and no intonation adjustments as well as no adjustable truss rod and the intonation and action are perfect on it and always have been since I got it in 64.


I am not sure what a zero fret is. Could you explain?


See below, the fret just behind the nut is called a "zero fret"

Thanks BCB. I'll have to check when I get home. I thought I took pictures of the neck to post but when I uploaded I didn't see it. I think I'll give this guitar a bit of a set up (I'm still a newbie at set ups). I think I've got a pack of strings kicking around somewhere. Hopefully it will be playable!

I guess I should ask how you use the zero fret to intonate.
