Headstock Shapes

I like the Fender Starcaster headstock. Still unmistakeably Fender, but with just enough of a different flair to make it stand out in the crowd. Body shape too, come to think if it.

I'm a little surprised to not yet see any of my three bass headstock styles (though the Granada seems modeled on the Gibson) so here goes:

Wishbass:

SX:

By the way, I'm thinking the one mod I might do to the SX would be to convert the headstock to MM 3+1 style to improve balance.
