Please: show us Fender basses with matching headstock!

Hi there,

I had a Fender Precision Special in lake placid blue with matching headstock (first owner) that I sold some years ago, because it's not the right bass for my style of playing anymore.

But I love those matching headstocks on Fenders!

Please, show me your Fenders with it - Fender XXX...;-)

Greetz

I used to have a pair of Fender Roscoe Beck fivers with matching HS, one in metallic teal, the other in shoreline gold. They definitely looked spiffy. (The candy apple red RB5 also had matching HS, the burst one did not).

My old photos aren't currently online, but maybe other RB5ers will contribute.

I consider Squier basses to be Fenders...so here's my new Mikey Way Mustang (next to my Bronco with the Gretsch 2202 pickup)....

I have both a CAR and Shoreline Gold one, but no pics.

Thx for all the beautiful pictures, guys!

A white Jazz Bass with matching headstock is on my wishlist.
