    It looks like its got a laminate body, but its really nicely aged. My first thoughts were Squier with the logo taken off but I am not so sure now, the heel adjusted truss though. The frets don't look too cleaver but I cant see them properly.

    How can you spot the laminate?

    R.
    Its just a guess but on the side of the body you can just about make out straight strips under the finish?

    Also zoom into the damage on the neck pocket, that's doesn't look like solid wood to me.

    If a guitar wishes to self-identify as a completely different guitar then that's fine by me.
    Maybe it's fender neutral

    Must admit, I'm intrigued by the history of this one.

    The machineheads are non-original, the decal has been removed and the brass nut may be a replacement.



    However, the bit that looks most familiar is the elongated pickup selector with a dog-leg bend. Just can't remember where from... confounded 



    @ICBM - any ideas?

    NB. That neck pickup has taken a hammering from truss rod adjustment! :)
