For those interested (and as previously promised), here are some pics of a dismantled goldstar and springy, in the course of cleaning and treating my collection to a fret dress:
Yellow Sunburst Goldstar ST-50 - looks pretty standard from the 84'ish era:

Yellow Sunburst Springy ST-40 - Spaghetti, no stamp on fretboard (so early 80's??), one piece bridge, Tokai stamped saddles, L+5 digit. "40" is written in china marker underneath where the neck plate goes (never seen that before):
