Hey, I'm looking at getting a second hand highway one - as far as I know the series was upgraded to the 70's big headstock in 2005/2006 - how come there are loads of 2003, 2004 and 2005 highway one's out there (also on youtube) with big headstocks and nitro finishes????

Confused? I am :)

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but if I'm remembering correctly during the first run of Highway 1's the HSS model did have the large headstock (and maybe a 21-fret neck?) but the SSS models had the "regular" small headstock.

They moved all the Highway 1 Strat models to the large headstock with that 2005/2006 revision.

:evil: I dunno why they changed them :cry: doesnt matter now since they dropped them though :lol: but the hss did have the gigantic head stock. the early ones seemed like they had an american standard neck on them though. because the bridge spacing caused the strings to be to wide at the heel. like they used leftover parts to clear them out. so they but I am no expert :roll:
