Kay is an iconic brand in the history of musical instruments, born in Chicago at the beginning of the 20th century and officially becoming the Kay Musical Instrument Company in 1931. Renowned for its wide range of string instruments, the brand has marked generations of musicians with acoustic guitars, electric guitars, basses, banjos, mandolins, violins, cellos, and double basses.

Throughout its history, Kay distinguished itself with a varied production ranging from folk instruments to hollow body models, as well as solid body electric guitars and lap steels. The brand also manufactured instruments for many stores and under different names, making it a major player in the American market for several decades.
