I think it may be a rare fender "shhytecaster" circa 1959, Jet Harris had a red one.
Chas Chandler was sent one directly from the manufacturer in America, but apparentley was "out" when it it arrived, so his brand new black model never arrived at his house.
back in the day they were worth as much as the equivalant of a greggs pastie today.

Some nasty looking lump of wood and metal - looked like it was painted black with hammerite smooth and with 'Fender' written on the headstock in silver paint.

Must have been the contender for the worst counterfeit Fender ever.
