I Went Nuts!!
Early Xmas for me, I guess...I couldn't resist. 58 MIJ reissue. Like when I were a lad. Wail shoot...I tried to attach a photo. I've got it at Photobucket. What's the best way to make it show up?

 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

Yeah...from '54 - '65 it was small. At the end of 65 to went to the big head until 1980 and during that year went back to the small.

I'm going to argue that you were nuts before you bought it, and then came to your senses after clicking "buy". Thats a beauty! Randy

That could be... he was well known as a b-esser. I took him at his word because I didn't know much about the history of guitars back then. Don't know much more about it now.

It was about 67-68, if memory serves, when CBS...yup, THAT CBS...bought Fender and immediately started mucking about. Many players of today think that the larger headstock was made to give the guitar greater sustain. And a great number of 70s and later players actually prefer it. But the sole reason for the big headstock was they could put a bigger logo decal on the guitar. Pure marketing. Perhaps that's a 68...could very well be. EDIT...just checked...like Spacey said it was actually 65/66 when the change was made.
