As i am looking for a Japanese JB matching headstock and binding (the JB65B and JB66B) i though that we could share our matching headstock basses.

All matching headstock basses are welcome :) JB, PB, MM, all shapes, all luthiers...
Please to post a picture and a short description (brand, year, details...)

Here my first contribution
2010-2012 Fender Japan JB65B Silver


Edit : a mistake in my sentence AND restore my picture

Nice!
Where did you buy it from, please?
I have been trying to find a white, rosewood, matching headstock jazz bass for ages but no luck so far :(

Your Jazz on the OP looks gorgeous.

I got two matching headstock basses, a Fender and a Modulus, pictured together with their now slightly self conscious naked headstock brother.

Really cool all black. Bravewood can do splendid relic instruments. Mojo inside :)

Not to everyone's taste I know - I happen to love 'em. Here are my two Bongos, matching headstock as standard.

I've been GASsing for a MM Bongo ever since I saw Gail Ann Dorsey playing a graphite 5'er with Bowie on his Reality tour at the SECC in Glasgow back in November 2003...still never even had a play on one, yet alone owned one!

Here's my matching headstock Lakland.

I agree with you LeftyJ. Lollipop or paddle tuners are missing :)
A fellow groover on Talkbass found solutions for wrong details on these reissue basses

A P project I put together a few years ago:

Having the head matching the actual body was a bit unrealistic but I do like how it turned out.

2007 Bongo in a lim.ed. finish they called Dargie Delight. The colour's called Logan Green aka Olive Green.

Aye. Tend to agree. Took me seven years to land one.
I couldn't afford a Tangerine Pearl, but it's still on my list! :)

BTW, have posted it before, but for the sake of this thread, here's my 2009 Bongo 4-HS Dargie Delight II, the second and up to now last run of the Dargies. The shifting colour's called Caramel Apple Delight.
As you can see, the angle of the light has a lot to say, and that's why the headstock seems not matching:
