Nope it's gone.

Yeah, that's exactly the type of piece I was looking for.I figured that would be gone. There's one more I'm wating to hear about, but there's no photos.

Funny thing about that 73 mapleglo was that he said the wings on the headstock had to be reglued. Sounds scary.

Here's a couple of close-ups of the headstock on that Mapleglo:

Not sure about the wings needing to be reglued ...seem OK in the pictures.

The other pictures are here:

Seems like the current headstock shape with the fatter "wave", doesn't it?

The "fatter wave" is the same size on my '03 4004Cii and my '67 4005WB!
