Another Wave Hater. I'm glad its cool to play a Japanese guitar again. There used to be (still is..?) a real stigma attached to playing guitars made in Japan, and people would cover up the logo or butcher the headstocks to avoid detection. Any interested parties should note the extra set of holes, so who knows what this was bolted to before, and expect them not to line up.

I was trying to figure out what it came off of. Most if not all the LP bolt ons had block markers, so I figured it came off a Workingman, but the Workingmans I've seen have the simple stencil logo, not a mother of pearl inlayed logo... so maybe this is off a really early Workingman? Still, the price is right (one dollar plus shipping), it would make a kick a$$ piece of wall art.

My Workingman has in inlaid MOP logo. Exactly like that one. I think you were right about it being from a Workingman.
