At first glance I had hope that it was a usa model, but it's the cheap Indonesian model, the PSV2000 I think, - but still pretty neat (and pretty stupid cheap, although an hour drive each way).  Neck and frets are quite good, and it's well under 7 pounds. The pickup looks like a Super Dist, but is weak, and just about 3.3 ohms.  I've got some low value Gibson hums, my plan is to put one of those in along with a better volume pot and delete the tone pot. The visible wood in the ding looks like some sort of Mahogany-ish variant?  It's still a poor substitute for the Hamer Vector I sold for dumb cheap around 12 years ago, but a fun low value guitar to mess around with.

You mean the Vector you sold for the going rate 12 years ago?  Asking prices were not so stupid back then.

I don't like to ship guitars, so I had to sell at a discount, I think it was about $400, with original hard case

This is a nice surprise!  - the wiring has 'the mark of the bonehead'.  * many guitars and most bicycles from pawn shops have 'the mark': previous owner worked on it and did something weird and boneheaded such that it doesn't work right.

That's pretty cool... What's the nut width and the fretboard radius?
