Is that 54 correct with the headstock end opening. :lol:

It gets my vote. I prefer headstock end adjustment anyway.

I like the: 66, 69, 74, and 79. Out of those I like the 74 with the bullet truss rod adjuster the best.

Hello Mike,

My favs would be the '61 & the '74.
Variations are pretty neat, Thanks.

Cheers.

Hehe: well - yes!

I like the '54 best. And I'll also be the first to cast a vote for the '83. Nice lines; like the trussrod hole. The logo lettering is a bit chunky, but they've put that right since. Good progress, Fender!

Cheers - C
