Charvel bumblebee

[Radshredder]

Hello
I have a charvel bumble bee
It’s dated April 27th 1982
And has a work order number in the neck pocket and the heel
Anyone ever see this symbol before ?
Is it Grover Jackson ?
Has anyone ever seen this symbol on a charvel guitar from the 70s or the 1980s ?

Thanks

I am certainly not a Charvel expert, although they are one of my 2 favorite guitar makers. The paint job does not look original, and the neck plate is a more recent version, too. As for the actual wooden pieces (neck and body), they could definitely be original to 1982, but someone else would have to chime in on that.

Great guitar!!!

What does the headstock look like ?
