As a collectors item? Maybe a fair bit of that price, but half of it would seem more realistic.

As a guitar? About a tenth of that would seem more realistic.

Would love to hang it on my wall but that's far too much for the pleasure.

that's so cool. and it's 23 frets, that's kinda cool. if you bend up at the last fret it's a full two octaves.

By the looks of it (and of course if it wasn't so valuable), in theory you could probably screw a metal plate to sick up slightly into the back of the neck so you could get a full two octaves out of it.

My ovation is also 23 frets. Bending that high is pretty insane, not sure why you'd ever have to go that high

I just think it is interesting because that is the only Teisco J-2 I have seen a photo of. The Teisco Twangers Timeline page(Link) says that the J-2 was made in 1954,the same year as the equally rare models J-1,TG-54 and TN-54

I dig that bridge cover highly.
