Looks like a status 2000 or 4000(I never get it right, I just play the things!) - I have one except this has holes drilled for a passive/active switch. I don't know if any other manufacturers did a copy using entirely graphite - pretty sure they didnt.

If the parts are still available this could be a great project. I had the very same model and regret selling it
