I think some of my least favourite headstocks are the ones where the designers were trying to make them look like the Fender outline, but slightly changed it [i]a bit[/i]. Not quite enough to look like the idea was ever any more than a sketch before it went to production.

I've had a slow burn for a 20/20 for a while now. I think Gibson only made about 150.

I'm still traumatised from the first time I saw a picture of a Lindert Loco-motive P Bass...

You probably won't want to see the Strat / 6-string bass doubleneck they did then... :o

Utterly, utterly dreadful. I don't care how great the rest of the bass might be... this is a carbuncle.

I agree about the headstock but that brass inlay looks a bit special. I tried inlaying with resin bonded "gold" metallic dust once. Never again.

I especially like the photo of a flock of sheep at the top. Bah!
