unknown stratocopy ID help

[scandoslav]

An hour+ of Googling has proven fruitless. I need the help of the bro's: what the heck is Jim's guitar in these pics?

I'm prepared to kick myself if the answer is obvious.

Ibanez Roadstar...from the 80s.

Yep, the headstock shot at the 2nd photo is plenty to tell

That's what gave it away for me.

It's a Blazer, not a Roadstar.

The full brass tremolo only came on Blazers, IIRC. I have one of those suckers and it mixes excellent with Strabro90ties.

Excellent, thanks bros. Kinda cool, looking at the headstock now I can see how it's a cross between strat and Ibanez shapes.
