    It was made in Vietnam and sold by one of two sellers on eBay. One sold under the name Bruceweiart and the other was AntonioTsai. They were both based in Taiwan. They both still sell products on eBay, mostly fairly garishly decorated musical instruments and components. Anoiniotsai also sold as inlaidartist.

    Apparently Bruceweiart is now bruceweiguitars.

    Not sure whether you own it or just looking but can the middle tuners on either side of the headstock actually be turned or are they purely ornamental like the rest of the instrument?
