It seems that they started with "inkies" in '78 and changed it during the year. Nothing to be worried about. The 001 stated in the '78 catalog is inked as well (custom cs) and I can't remember either having seen any impressed '78 nor any thin lettered '78 LPR logo. But I've only seen about a dozen.
Anyway, it should be rather difficult to fake a more than 20 year old electric guitar. Not because of the woods or looks but an exact replication of hardware parts of course. That would make the whole thing too expensive. Tokais ain't that much profitable like Fender Pre-CBS strats or '58 - '60 Gibbo LPS, thank God
