there seem to be a couple familiar curves here.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pretty-pink-Bar ... 416df339b7
to say it's a "copy" would be a stretch I think but I wonder if it could at least be called "influenced by"....

Not so much like a 480 as I think it is modeled after this Yamaha design:

It's a 1966 Yamaha SG-2a, to be specific. The "EVG" guitar above must be a reissue, never heard of it. All that aside who really cares about a plastic barbie guitar, there are actual copies with identical features out there to worry about.
