Best looking Headstock?

[notCardio]

I was gonna say maybe it's an age thing

I have always loved the fender headstock. Not so much the new, smaller ones though. The old Jimi-era headstocks have always gotten my noodle going!

but if you're really 23, well then there goes that theory.

Give me the big, machete-hook Fenders.

And I can't stand the pointy ones, like Jackson, Charvel, et al.

And it's the headstock that keeps me from buying a Carvin strat or tele-type or B4 bass, otherwise I'm sure I'd have a bunch of the kits.

You can get any of their headstocks on those.

I'm also a fan of the Jackson pointy or ESP pointy (Jackson ripoff).

But here,s the dumbest looking ones that have managed to hang around for decades:

No offense

Here's a pic...

I like most Carvin stuff, but that headstock is butt ugly..

I wasn't very serious. I wonder where you get an 9 that long.

Martin D-45 headstocks are beautiful.

I don't have a close-up of mine, but take a look at these vintage Ampeg axes -> http://www.xstrange.com/vintagemain.html

The model I have is on the far right.

Of course i should say my favorite headstock is the one I designed for this guitar that I built....

Steinberger?

Steinberger

HAAAAAAA HAAAAAA...good one!

Gibson ! It has graceful lines but it's not over stated It's simplistic elegance. It's as much a part of the Gibson logo as the name itself!

(fwiw, I'm not talking about the Thunderbird, Explorer, or any of the non-standard gibson headstocks.)

 

[metalhead28]

Very cool!

Thanks!
