Sounds like a Japanese hot-rod all right...

Great, actually reminds me a lot of my D-67SJ Washburn. Now that I think they were made by the same people, it doesn't surprise me all that much.
However, the bracing of the two is quite different...
(Edit: I just realized this one and the D-67 share a cedar top and do have a similar tone. Guess I like cedar more than I thought...)

Beautiful dread. Interesting blend of Martin'esque design touches and some very unique design elements. Very striking. The pic you posted over the the washie forum look much more like martin clones.
Thanks for the pics.

I agree with you. But you know, if the bridge of this Mark V were conventional (like in the Mark I and Mark II), it would look just like another Martin clone...
I believe that could be one reason why Washburn went for the triangular headstock around 83.
