I've seen that custom 8-string Ricky before. While I like the headstock, I think it is uneccesarily long and should be shortened a bit.

These Headstocks are without a doubt the funkiest, Ugliest, coolest, craziest production pieces I have ever seen!
Ronn I like the walnut wings too but I am stuck on making one of these just like the one Chris S. has. Not because it 's his but because I love the simplicity of the solid white color W/ black accents and it will make a perfect bookend match for my 5 string Jetglo!
We have Gotta come up with a new name for this headstock. I have heard "Frogs Foot", "Potato Head" how about an
"Idaho Wiggely" or "Two Monkeys Fu*&ing a Football" or "Water Head" or "The Wave" or "?"

"Mister Potato Heads Wet Dream" Hey another name for the band!
Back to reality. I gotta go get some sleep, I got tomorrow off and I got a lot a **** to do! Leaves are turning up here in the north country won't be buying basses for a while. I got a Fuel Oil tank in the house and in the Garage/Barn to try and keep full this winter, and it looks like that will be a financial task this year!
