I suppose is a Guitar/bass becouse have 3 more cords may be for a bass player . Inside there is a target on paper bad in bad state it's wrote : (Milano - fece in Vignate 1961 ) and there is a U--ATO . I dont know nothing about this instrument . And i'm very glad to some one can help me in my reserch . Thanks to all the expert of collectors Weekly .

Made in Vignate 1961-- Usato means used in Italian. I think it is an extended range (bass range) classical guitar. see: http://www.rsmits.com/eINST.htm
