I´ve got one, probably late fifties It´s WERY dry sounding with a "honky" mid. It´s a fine guitar, but nothing really special. I did sell my favino #511 in favour for this one - but I reckon my Favino was in desperate need for a restoration, and I got a chunk of cash in between..

If the guitar on ebay (japan?) plays and sounds anything like mine I´d say
it is well worth the asking prize.

My Caselluccia looks excactly like this one

but someone nicked the SB tuners on my exemplaire.
