The saddles are rollers but do not have independent vertical movement. With the bridge set to a very slight angle, the intonation is spot on. The feedback is certainly an added bonus and I incorporate it into my writing/recording when appropriate. I filmed myself, for my own amusement, as I moved the guitar around, in relation to the amp, getting different frequencies of feedback. It makes a great British police siren!I am so glad to be a part of this wonderful website! I can tell that I'm among friends. I have a growing collection of unique vintage guitars and I plan on posting their pics along with some questions about them over time.
Y'all take care!

It looks similar to this teisco that we sold on vintaxe a while ago
I couldn't find the exact guitar with the telestar brand name on it but I think it might be based on the '67 or '68 Teisco EP-2T
This picture of a guitar for sale looks similar
The seller of this guitar claims this guitar is an EP-8T but that model usually has more rounded horns and your has the more pointy horns which leads me to believe its based on the EP-2T
This is the '68 Teisco catalog page in our database with the EP-2T which I think your guitar most closely resembles.

You will have to subscribe to view our catalog scans and can do so here if you would like, http://www.vintaxe.com/subscribe.htm
Here is a short youtube video of the Teisco EP-2T that gives you a decent look at the body
