Do not buy any more of this stuff till you check with me. I'll send you a body better than this for nothin' out of love and respect for your considerable guitar restoration skills.
It looks to me that you have acquired a Kawai Stratoid that is a 2nd generation project. That neck pocket has more holes than a honeycomb. I agree that the pup bridge distance is weird, but check that bridge tailpiece relationship. Way too low to be original. This body has suffered from the experimentation of a pre-pubescent kid attempting to create his first "custom" guitar.
The ghosts you see in the picture don't look original to me. The bridge ghost looks like a Teisco bar and the tailpiece looks like a cheap Teisco claw. I've got both pieces if that's the way you want to go, but I don't believe they are part of the original guitar.
This looks like too much work to me. Seriously, if you want a Stratiod plywood body, I'll send you one. Send me an email or private message with your address and I'll ship out a body that you will not need to refinish.
hope you are well
