Notes  and pictures on this guitar.....

Simple passive electronic amplifier with speaker mounted under pick guard. Single coil pickup with on-off switch  located on the pick guard by neck

This specific guitar is named "Tweety" because it has been modified the cartoon character Tweety Bird emblem affixed to surface of pick guard.

Tweedy back left side back exposes the magnet of the speaker that is intact.  Right side top shows amplifier cavity.. “ a possible project  guitar” for someone who has the expertise.

This guitar has 6 inline original machine heads with original Tiesco emblem.

Here is the rear view of the 6 in line machine heads. The machine heads are operational.

Tweedy neck fret markers on 5^th fret - 22^nd fret with imitation pearl

Additional info:

This is possibly “one of a kind” and would fit in a memorabilia collection.

I sold guitars like this without the "Tweety Bird" emblem attached in the early 1960's.

It was quite an attention getter as it was self contained at one time.
