Brian18242 Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Am I the only one who prefers the newly designed headstock of the Z series? Honestly, this headstock should be on all the other models! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me, I quite like the headstock of the D5 - with its cheeky nod to the '51 P headstock 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Looks the same as it always has to me, maybe a little shorter & broader but barely a redesign. It's still gopping. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmywinks Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Looks pretty much the same to me, it's ok. Then again I don't like the bulbous Fender headstock really. Much better implementation here: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, this headstock should be on all the other models! Funny thing is it wasn't supposed to look like this. The prototypes they showed at NAMM had a 3+1 headstock like the Stingray. But a certain mr. Ball probably asked them kindly and politely to drop that design. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexDelores Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 I really don’t mind the shape. I just hate that it says Marcus Miller on it. I really wish they just had the S on the top. The MM name on the headstock makes them look so cheap to me. I know it’s very shallow, but, I just can’t shake it! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Yes, the Z series shape is much better. A subtle reshape and it looks less like a 4 year old drew it originally ha ha!! I think the Z7 looks like a great instrument. Looking forward to reviewing them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLowDown Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 (edited) The shape of the headstock is pretty low down in my priorities. Unless it's impractical in any way then it shouldn't matter IMO, and I don't really see anything impractical about it.

Agreed, it's not the prettiest but it's far from the ugliest, and when I'm playing I don't care what it looks like as I'm not looking at it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
