traded an old laptop for it, I know nothing about guitars. I’m currently watching and reading on what I need (amp simulator as a first step is what I figured out) and then learn how to play the thing. in the interim, would be nice if someone knows what brand or model this is and what I should pay attention to. thanks!
I ran the picture through Google Lens and got this hit:

Looks like yours may have a custom split headstock on it. Or it could be a clone.

body looks like a pretty good match. I think this guitar got customized which explains the lack of finish, the strat-like bevel, and the V headstock.
