It's a NOS (new old stock) Strat - Time Machine series. Basically a Strat recently built, but made to look like it was built in 1956 but never played and stored since then. It should be a nice guitar.

I think that it's expensive Roland. I reckon around £1600 is about right in todays market.

One here on Ebay UK = Music Ground though, but it gives a idea of the price.
