Cool guitar! Looks like an Ace with a paint job, a decal, and red flying saucer knobs.

The Ace was actually sold with a white finish as an option. It described in the catalog as "white lacquered porcelain", which suggests some kind of finish over the Bakelite.

All the catalogs I have only mention maroon and white, but apparently they made blue and red at some point, too.

Nice selection of colors there Noah! What model is that Little Ampeg amp in the picture with all of them?
Kinda curious if that might be the Mercury M12.

That's not my picture but it looks like it could be an M12 or R12.
