unknown parts in this guitar

[number]

Hi,
Parts in this guitar are original?
Which manufactured produced this guitar?
I think it's "home" work...
Pickups are "orpheus". Orpheus pickups are good?
Thanks for reply,
Best Regards

Oh my, what a frankie... There's NOTHING original on this guitar except for the tailpiece. It once was a Jolana, made in Czechoslovakia, but it had the finish stripped and was then put together badly with a home-made guard, Bulgarian pickups and a mix of other stuff.

A nice lot of parts here for a East Euro guitar repairman if the price is low enough. The Orpheus pickups would be valuable to someone restoring an Orpheus.

Thanks Beat, I would have never ID'ed that Stein. The expertise you bring to the table is much appreciated.

And Spud, thanks for covering my back on numerous occasions.sb

I'm going to guess whoever built it doesn't play guitar, or he would never have put those knobs on it!
