Says fuckall. Look at my ovation:

Ovation guitars ≠ Maestro guitars.
And I'd argue that, while not necessarily the end of the world, it does show a certain attention to detail. Also, you have to be very forthright in these threads or else WTR will just go ahead and buy it.

WTR, Maestro never made any good guitars. Even the fuzz pedal they're best associated with (whisper it) isn't actually that good. You're pissing in the wind.

The headstock script on that Tele should be enough to scare anyone away, never mind the bodybutt.
