Due to stubbornly high 5.2% annual inflation I have no alternative but to adjust the price from $350 + shipping to $351.49 + shipping.
NO case. I couldnt find much info on this guitar did not try the phone number I have.
I bought some wing nuts for quick-change legs. I discovered that the screw holes are threaded into the end plate. So you have two choices to make it portable. Leave screws facing in and carry a 3/8 wrench to bolt them on. Or a phillips screwdriver and screw from inside out, securing with wing nuts.

Overfelt Eagle Strut MG guitar. Legs are bolted on with Nylon lock nuts, very stable. Was gonna convert to wing nuts for portability, would be easy. Sounds good. Maple PLYWOOD construction. Unknown pickup.

The scale length is 24". Correct: No volume or tone.
The tuners are "Gotoh Style" I cannot tell if they are OEM or CCC (cheap chinese crap). They seem like the real thing.
I acquired it regionally. Looked all over the web but came up empty on this model, note the similarity to the Longhorn:

I guess it was made in the teens.
Cheers
