Cooterfinger knocks it out of the park again.... Teisco

Got my Teisco together last night finally thanks to a new pickguard from Cooterfinger. I would like to find some more "correct" knobs but the witch hats are fine for now. Plays nice but the tuners are really tight and need replacement. I am really digging the sounds this thing makes.

Very cool. What model is it? I like the blue too. Fancy a Teisco, generally decent prices too.

If you look at the lower dip, where you'd set it on a leg to play sitting, one of its previous owners scorched it with something. Not too noticeable tho.
