Sound test for unknown japanese guitar '70 (CIMAR? TEISCO? ...)

Sound test of unknown japanese guitar (made in the '70). No brand name (probably it is a Cimar or Teisco - but no logo on the headstock ,

only a mark "MADE IN JAPAN" on the back - check on the web and you will guitar like this one).
Guitar strato type with one single coil, one tone & one volume. Tailpiece not original .
The strings are really light (.008) then the sustain is minimum (I think it is better to use .010 or .011 in this guitar).
The sound of the video is not so good, probably due to the Line In of the laptop (see setup configuration).

A nice guitar, for sure not your last and only guitar forever, but a good workhorse to play with.
