Trying to determine which body I actually have so I can look for a new one. Could someone help identify it?

Looks like Protech II

I’m calling it a Protech II. It’s similar to the protech but I don’t see the indents for the front tower on yours, but I do see the teardrops where the nose tube screws are.

If you've been browsing this forum or ebay, you probably already know that Penguin on ebay makes Protech II bodies.

I recently bought a couple of them and although quality isn't as good as genuine AE (they're certainly not perfect), they're not too bad.

Of the bodies available today which one is the best quality?

I guess that depends. Of the two bodies I'm familiar with, Penguin's are dimpled and TBG's are short.

This is a Penguin shell...
The dimples aren't really noticeable once painted although you can see them if you look closely. I think they are pretty ok.
