"First Teisco Guitar"?

Aaron Jennings · From: Montana, USA

Hey everybody,

While recently doing research on Teisco guitars, I stumbled across this oddity on Ebay.. (No connection to the seller/auction just curious as a historical point):

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Teisco-Vintage-Electric-Guitar-One-Off-4-Jack-Westheimer-Original-Importer-AOI-/281576813486?pt=Guitar&hash=item418f4933ae#viTabs_0

described as: "Teisco Vintage Electric Guitar. This is a One Off Vintage Teisco Electric Guitar Designed for Jack Westheimer, a Distributor of Guitars Including Harmony and Others. He was the Original Importer of Teisco Guitars from Japan to the USA and this Guitar Bears the Original Company Initials Around the Teisco Name, AOI as Shown in the Close Up of the Pickup, as Well as His Initials Inlaid on the Neck as Shown in Pictures. This Places the Year this was Produced Before 1956."

Regardless of the authenticity of the story -- what a neat looking instrument. (Edited to add Images)
