I missed one of these on eBay (couldn't pull the trigger on the Buy It Now) and now I'm obsessing over it. It's similar to the ET-290 or ET-275 or ET-278, but only has the combination bridge/tailpiece like a Les Paul Junior. Here are the only pics I've found of one on the net:

Is that a stock bridge? Looks a bit like the Schaller to me. I have a ton of pics here somewhere. I'll look when I have a chance.

No, that's not the stock bridge. I do believe it is a Schaller. Good catch. The stock bridge was most likely the compensated Melody Maker type which everyone replaced because it was compensated for a wound G string. The ET-276 I missed on eBay had a Badass bridge.
These were the only pics I could find of this particular model.
