I Picked Up An Awesome 1961 Kay Arch Top! Perfect Playing Condition

With the becoming unplayable for those being so common i wonder what different life that one has had to still be good. I feel I'd be inclined to detune it after each session to let it rest with less tension. It's worth preserving for sure.

I went out and put on softer string asap, less tension.. the gentleman I purchased it from said he just bought it from an estate sale for $50 last week, I have no lineage as to how this stayed in such great shape.. I wish I had some history to go along with it… that’s not a bad idea about the strings..
