Fixed it for you.

(If you knew how poorly I write and spell, you would understand how funny this really is).

Personally, I never cared for the big headstock, I like the 50's style headstock.
But it is your guitar and not mine, as long as you love it, that is all that counts.

Q: Does the 70's model have the 7.25 radius as well?

Yes. Just as on the originals.

Sorry bout the typos.,, i have two dogs running around and i Classic 50's series that i am playing as I type.( i type with 1 finger and do left hand exercises..).. I love the 50's spaghetti logo and deeper tint myself. The 70's strat grew on me,... I am a big Jimi Hendrix fan, and have been going through alot of his music right now. Maybe that caused it, dont kno, .But I cant wait to get it in my hands..... Will be interesting to feel the u -shaped neck. thanks for the corrections....

Not sure about the reissues but I have an original '78. The neck is huge, it weighs a ton, and sounds like an angel.

Big headstocks rock!
