Is it my imagination or are the headstocks slightly different shapes ?

Headstocks have varied somewhat in size and shape over the years.
The 4 string 4004 headstocks that I have seen have been smaller (narrower) than the 4003 headstocks.
Might be cool to make this a thread of headstock pics.

Approximately 275 Bass headstocks here. You can also compare them with the new comparison feature.
