It looks, to me, like a Greg Bennett Avion. Quite a cheapie.

Because .....Gretsch! That is nice. I'd like a duo jet or a Billy Bo if I ever bought another. I nearly pressed the button on a Jim Dandy acoustic recently but though better of it.

I was confused as it has a Samick headstock, until I looked up Greg Bennet Guitars and found they were designed by Greg for Samick. From the Greg B website it would seem the electrics are no longer in production, though I can find quite a few still for sale in the UK. Acoustics only at the moment.
Holy Moly, it's completed!!
Some very unique black finished acoustic strings!

Even the non-wound strings are treated with the special finish. No idea how well it will hold up over time.

I'm lost for words. That's incredible.
It's certainly all done very well but for me the overall effect is cheap and tacky. A bit less would equate to a lot more for this guitar.
