Looks like a modified BL450SB (Sky Blue).

Non-original pickups, non-original toggle-switches (originally 5-way switch).
Value? Depends on the pickups.

Is it a Strat copy? Yes and no. The Fender two pot + jack input in the pickguard Strats appeared in the beginning of the 80s too, but one year LATER in 1983 (Source: Tony Bacon and Paul Day "The Fender Book" First ed. 1992 page 46).
So who copied whom?

I am not sure if the colour and pickguard are original. Looks like repainted - missing phase switch(?).
Well, I'll pass this one though it wuold not cost much (<150€?, auction). The seller is probably celebrating May Day so seriously that he can't answer questions
