This is going to be a tough one. It is a bit like a Mosrite copy and shares parts with many 60's to early 70's guitars. The neck plate is not the typical Tiesco shield shape but that does not mean much. You could ask over at the Cheesy Guitar section of the Electra Forum. http://www.rivercityamps.com/electrafor ... cab510ad94
Also there is a member there (I think he is a member here too) Lordbizzare who knows a lot about these guitars. His web page is great too. http://www.lordbizarre.com/

Good luck.
