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.

Clearly 1965 was a good year for Donovan...a DB5 to go with the 1997.... that man sure had great taste

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???

Yes, to some, all or none of the above.
Kenny made this photo of it (or not

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