It's a 70's or 80's import similar to the one in this 1971 Sears catalog

and the one in this 1981 Montgomery Ward catalog

is it worth the shipping cost? lol

i don't know much about guitar wood, necks and construction, but the guy says it stays in tune, and with a nice set of pickups, it will probably be a decent guitar, wright?

Yea I was gonna say I've seen a couple teisco's that look like that. The pickguard is what gives it away.

well yea it's the whole thing that looks teisco-ish, but those pickguards with the weird floral pattern thing are always a dead giveaway that it's a teisco.
