Is this guitar worth anything
Hello again I know I've already posted about this guitar before but it's giving me loads of problems and I just want to know if it's worth anything. If it's not worth anything I'll probably just paint it or something but before I do it i just want to know if it's rare or not

Bought this in Japan 1968. A friend of my father was an exporter and it was his sales sample.

Teisco Del Ray E-110
I started a channel to highlight the weird, random instruments I've found at Goodwill in 60 seconds. Thought y'all might appreciate this vid on my E-110 (Teisco's "tulip guitar"). Love this thing, but the bridge inflicts serious pain every time I use it.

Weird Electric 12 String
Hi
I bought this in the very early 80s from a guy. No idea who made it, no markings. Maybe hand made?
12 Strings, two outputs. Probably 70s made cause it was old looking in the 80s.
Anybody know what it is?

Fake Rick ID Help
Can anyone tell me more about my Japanese Rickenbacker 330 copy? I saw something in an old Ibanez catalog that had the same shape, but I know several nameplates were used in a lot of those factories. Only markings are an MIJ stamp on the backplate.

Southeast Asian Butterfly Electric
Came across this amazing guitar on a private Facebook Marketplace 2nd hand guitar group last week. For whatever reason I am just obsessed with getting this guitar, but the seller is not being cooperative. Is anyone able to provide any details on the brand or company so I can look for another one elsewhere? The brand on the headstock is Limit Musical.
Only being sold for 2500NTD so I imagine it's some sort of cheap kid's starter brand or some other cheap knock off! Please let me know if you know anything! Thanks.

Conrad Bison 1245 - 2 pickup version
Found this in a deceased relative's house. He didn't play, to my knowledge, but he was definitely a bit of a hoarder and this may have been a random thrift store purchase.
Mostly had to gut it except for the pickups which seem intact. Looking forward to reviving this.

Univox UC3
Had this for a few years now. The previous owner said that one of the original pickups had failed so they were replaced with SD pickups - I believe they are vintage rails. The pickup selector is three way and the additional switch isn't wired. No tremolo arm.
Anyone know where I could get a replacement tremolo arm. I'm in the UK, but realise I may have to import parts.
I'm thinking of changing out the pickups and restoring the aux switch. I've looked for original UC pickups but no luck so far. I have some Jaguar pickups, including a RWRP pickup. I was thinking about dropping these in, wiring in series and putting rwrp pickup in the middle position, wired on the second switch, so I could have any combination. Alternatively I could look at other pickups, like mojo uk's Kleenex pickup or lipstick pickups.
What would you do? Looking for ideas and inspiration
