Found one mint today with hard case plush ling for 150.00 seems pretty nice no electronics. I've never come across this model anybody have the backstory. Just noticed Schaller tuners made in west germany.

If I'm not mistaken... components made off shore but assembled in New Hartford.
IMHO... better than a Celebrity... but not quite up to U.S.
$150 is a steal.... well done.

Some of the Ultras had solid spruce tops, rather than laminate. They sounded very good.

If you could tell us the Model Number on the Sticker, then it would be easy to answer your questions.
Just looking at it, it looks like an Ultra 1312.
