Jeff, I was referring to the four Fireglo basses to the left. They have the "normal" headstocks, but no V63s have been made since Monte Brown was introduced, so the photo would have to be 2004 or later, and during the run of the C64 with the reversed headstock. So that leads me to believe that the four are part of the "1999" run made for the Japanese dealer/customers.
Of course, that makes sense. :) I still had the white one burned into my eyeballs. :mrgreen:
