That's a Brownsville Choirboy. Brownsville was something of a "house brand" for the US music chain Sam Ash, or at least that's where I remember them mainly being sold. I believe they were MIK. The construction is sort of like a Danelectro, cheap chipboard-type body with a center block of some mystery wood bolted to a maple neck/rosewood board. The cool thing about that'un is the low-output toaster pickups, which are alnico single-coils (despite looking rather like humbuckers). The middle pickup is reverse-wound/reverse polarity, for hum-canceling in the 2 and 4 spots on the 5-way selector. Kind of like a thinline Strat on steroids. The toasters are beefier than Strat or other Fender single coils.
The color is one that Brownsville copped from the old Fender custom colors, called Burgundy Mist. It's a shade darker than it shows up in pictures.
