This is the guitar that started it all. The Vintage Voice KG1 was our first release and the one that proved Kardinal was for real. Mahogany body, vintage voiced PAF style humbuckers with that warm, musical tone that players fall in love with instantly. It plays beautifully and sounds exactly as it should.
This particular guitar is part of our B-Side collection, meaning it did not meet our cosmetic standards before shipping. The specific issue is documented in the photos below. It does not affect playability or tone in any way.
If you have been on the fence about a Kardinal, this is your shot to get into one at a discount. The B-Side is as real as it gets.
