or the auction pic... note that this one is strung traditional as is the potato head, and squire's would be oposite, but both headstocks are the same shape, just drilled differently for the machines.

What about a semi potato? (the production 4008 headstock was not as curvy as the 4003s/8)
Mashed potato perhaps?
