And I thought my guitar was patterned after a Mosrite!

I see your point.

BTW, how does that guitar sound? Always wondered about that model. Some of those old Japanese guitars sound excellent.

It plays great, but the pickups were kinda weak so I installed some Mosrite pickups and the sound is huge!

I remember that Standel guitar ad in Downbeat--always thought that was a cool guitar. I'd go for a Hallmark reissue (maybe with a bit wider neck?) in a heartbeat.
