Not mine..yet, but I'm working on it. I know, the headstock is a little, um, odd, but I think that's part of it's charm.

Ah man, this is a jewel in the rough. All it needs are different colored pickups and a burlap bag over the headstock!

Haha, trust you! I figured I'd get a slew of comments regarding the headstock. It's sort of like a smaller, more demented Dean headstock. :ROTF:Originally posted by SEEGERMANY View PostAh man, this is a jewel in the rough.

I just got an email back from the dude. I'm going to see it on monday or tuesday.
The pickups could be Dimarzios. I believe that's what were used on the early Lados, and this one looks like it is probably around 25-30 years old.Comment

Just pulling your chain my friend! I'm glad the headstock is not yellow or orange. If it was, we'd have to rename it the AFLAC V.

Actually, I think it was Ace Frehley. It had a Strat styled body and the funky headstock."POOP"Comment

That looks like a neckthrough...may also be Schaller pickups.
Lado used alot of Schaller hardware.
Should be a decent handmade guitar...haven't seen many Lado Vs or much of that headstock either.
They always made some nice shredders too.

I think the V looks pretty neat!
I love the Lazer as well. I just picked up Iron Maiden's Live After Death DVD yesterday... lots of Lado Earth action from Adrian.
I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.Comment
