John: Speechless, I see. :lol:
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

L~R: '72 4001, '86 Shadow, '98 4003.
My favorite headstock shape among them is the '98.

Yep. Y'know, when I looked/bought it I had thought someone had put another TRC on it, a later one from the 70s....I had forgot to take into account that the entire peghead is longer on a '69...So all is well. :wink:

This one is March of '63 in Fireglo.

The extra screw was part of a string tree added by a earlier owner. The two lower screws are fake. There are NO screw holes in the wood under them and I don't know why.
