Don't always have the option, though!

I've owned some old Fenders and Mosrites (where the string end goes back into the tuner) with burn marks on the headstock. I totally dig it. 8)

WAIT!!!!! Didn't Donovan have an RM1999 bass at one time??????

The one Squire is playing in the "Hold Out Your Hand/ You By My Side" video.
I read somewhere---maybe here on the Forum---that said bass was previously owned by Donovan. AND, that Chris gave it to Mr. Gallo.

Is this correct???

As far as I'm aware, Vincent does have this bass.
