It probably doesn’t surprise you that I subscribe to Vintage Guitar Magazine. I received April’s issue a while back and way surprised at the numerous hollowbodies included in that issue. Here’s a run-down:
Everybody’s favorite SNL band leader and a sexy Kay 5970B (B as in Blonde):

Then a bunch o’ hollowbody basses from the collection of Cheap Trick bassist Tom Petersson:

Above, a large-bodied Framus Star in “Humbug” finish. Below, a ‘59 Hofner 500/5 President, 60’s Klira Twen-Star and small-bodied ‘62 Framus Star, also in “Humbug” finish. (Notice how the Klira is incorrectly labelled as a Hofner. Come on VG! That’s an amateur mistake.
)

Lastly, a 3/4-size ‘61 Framus Star and another 50’s Kay 5970 (modified with what looks to be a Hofner ‘Staple’ pickup.

Those Kays are so cool. And, when you actually find one, crazy expensive.
