With the crooked maple strip pieces on the Newark streets, I am wondering what is considered acceptable for Starfires and what the vintage stripes look like, as well as Starfires from any era.
So, if you are bored and get a minute, please post a shot of your any-era Starfire headstock back, and lets see what is the norm for them.
Please also note if your stripe is centered at the neck/body joint/strap button, too. That way we will know if they run crooked the whole way, or bend back, aligned with strap button.
The other Newark Street back-o'-d'-headstock issue:
I think I remember that it has already been stated here, that crooked key alignment doesn't matter, because the tuner shaft is still in the hole. Assuming the hole in the headstock was bored out in the right place.
But let's take a look at the maple strips to see what is considered normal. Thanks.
