Question about the Lennon '58 headstock

Post by 1OUfan »

Is the headstock on a 2004 350V63 the same dimensions etc. as the original Lennon '58 (first Ed Sullivan appearance guitar)?

Although I haven't measured them, I'll will say that they are not alike in dimension.

The 325C58 is only Rickenbacker made currently that has the closest if not spot-on measurements of the original '58 325s....

Same here. While always close, not the same.

I think the headstock on the 350v63 is supposed to resemble the 325c64 60's style, but it's not exactly like either of them.
