Can never go wrong with a Tange MX2 or Beartrap headset but I think they used YST headsets on the later Gooses  :daumenhoch:

Early days maybe Spen but did they use Goose stamped stuff even in the mid 80's?

My '84 Cali has a Mongoose stamped one.  :daumenhoch:
(But I guess this could have been changed at any time?!)

Yep, my '83 Cali had one.

Jonnygoose will tell us what day they stopped putting them on and what was for luch in the staff canteen that day, but deffo up to at least '85, possibly '87 before they got all cheap on us :coolsmiley:
