Do you think this is the type of logo for this guitar?

I used to play Devi Ever's del ray when we had a band, I liked that weird little thing. Like a super fancy cheap guitar

Thanks! It's more playable than the other cheap japanese guitars I have owned

I bought some parts to restore it.

i've always wanted one of those in that blue color, but after playing some of the old 60's japanese guitars etc it kind of put me off the whole idea.

Yeah most of them are junk. This one is much better than the others I have owned. The neck is similar to a stratocaster neck.

I got the logo and trem arm and spring for mine but I still need a tremelo spring cup like the one in the 2 photos at the bottom.

The spring sits in the little cup below the trem arm. I didn't notice it was missing. I don't think they make these any more.

This is one of my favorite guitars and guitar designs of all times. I believe Ernie Ball trademarked the 4 and 2 tuner layout but they obviously didn't invent it.
