Mary Kaye Strat
The Mary Kaye Stratocaster features gold hardware and a white blonde finish

Mary Kaye was a Hawaiian-born bandleader who played in a host of Las Vegas nightclubs during the 1950s, pioneering the lounge music genre - characterised by slow tempo, easy listening sounds.

This signature 1957 model features gold hardware and a white blonde finish and is among the rarest and most desirable Strats in existence.

We have this golf bag from that other star of 1950s Las Vegas, Frank Sinatra.
