Any ideas what this is and what it's worth?

It's been photographed without the tremelo arm. Is that missing?

[Merton]

Hmmm it appears it's missing. Damn

It's a Matsumoku made ET-275, basically a Crestwood. http://www.matsumoku.org/models/epiphone/catalogs/1974/pg5.html

Just going on the price of a 280 and knowing guitars usually sell for a bit more, maybe £250 -£300. I'm just guessing really.
