It sounds like ben and jerry's, but they make different
flavours of guitars without ben..lol. I wonder what
you mean by custom guitar maker....like jerry would
make a guitar for a particular person or something like that?
i think he had the pickguard off of that other one but he could get
no information from it. do you think it would help
to have pictures of the guts like the pickup back
and pots or anything that is hidden? If so, he would
probably take it apart again and take pictures.
He might want some of those anyway.

"Jerry's Guitar Factory" custom-build from the 60's... unusual fret markers and headstock shape... zero fret... big 'ol space at the bottom where a trem could go... could be a cousin?
Cosmo, did you ever snap those pics? Has your buddy ever pulled off the pickguard to see whats in there?

Happy Holidays and Happy Christmas to all! And watch out for the strong new year's punch fortified with the Stoli vodka.

The Bigsby could very well have been an aftermarket addition.
There is something just so familiar about this guitar (especially that little tab on the headstock), I just can't pinpoint it!!
Could you perhaps post a picture of the back of the headstock and the neckplate?

I don't think it is a cheap guitar, simply because it has a nice nut on the tuner end of the fretboard, whereas cheap guitars seem to have just a larger fret there that would act as a nut. That, and like you said, the bigsby,...I don't think anyone would bother putting a nice bigsby on a throwaway guitar.

On the hunch that it might be a European made guitar of other origin,I'm going to send an email to Jack Marchal at Fetish Guitars and see what he thinks it might be. Another possibility is that it's a modified guitar, not in it's original state.
