Do you have two lenticles John?

Agreed, time to end the lenticle debate!

Somehow I went against my better judgement when I used that word. I just knew it would spark...

Oh, never mind...Image

A damn good thread Alex....Image

The headstock shape is something that particularly interests me. But have you decided to have the mod done to your gtr, or not?

The same goes for bass headstocks. There is quite a lot of variation in them as well.

Good point Alex. It pays to ask questions.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Paul(Jingle J), What's the best way to contact you in regards to the potential refin of my 325V63. I would like to provide photos, if I can get some decent shots. I figure that if I just had the heel refinished I would still probably need to do the complete neck, headstock and all. That way there would be no visible blend lines. However, if the cost isn't to great it might be better to refin the entire guitar (not to include fret board). Let me know what you think. Thanks, D.B.
It is what it is!

Just a great photo Ronn. More than just a bassman.
