I think someone has already been in contact and is in the purchase negotiation stage. :D

Very Teisco/Decca looking - even the pickup. Possibly a real gold foil but probably faux.

Well the guy said he would sell it to me but then never responded to emails. Finally he sent a reply back tonight that he sold it yesterday.

Jac, PCM is Pacific Coast Music, a company owned by the brother of SLM's owner. Both used the Electra brand. PCM Electras are not as well documented as the SLM ones. Many were of lower quality and some resembled Teisco products. The logo is typical PCM. I don't recall any Electra, PCM or SLM, being positively identified as a Teisco product.
