Ugliest headstock ! G&l ???

The G&L is a munter. 100%.

 

The early headstocks were nice, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Fender complain the original design was too similar to theirs?  

Hence the change plus the removal of "by Leo Fender" on the decal. I have both versions, I prefer the early style one but don't notice (avoid noticing) the shape of the later one when playing it.

This is the adult stage. The larvae are often aggressively farmed to become tongue depressors, and the nymphs to become seaside chip forks. That's why you don't see many of these adults in the wild.

Looking at all of these has made me realise that it's just headstocks that are ugly. They're all ugly.

 

They are - the fender ones are pretty ugly, the telecaster (and original P) are beyond ugly but everyone is used to them.

Sure there is, a bass both with and without a headstock

I'm hoping the body of something like this makes up for such a hideous headstock, but I doubt it.

Other than that...

Please don’t search Laurus. Save yours eyes. For saying the Italians are infamous for art, they’re bass guitar designs are shocking.

You know what they say - black is slimming.  Sarcasm aside, I like the black tuners/black strings combo.  Need a black screw inside that string tree though for the full effect...

They’re sort of so ugly…I would forgive it…

 

like LEH guitars - their basses are gorgeous, apart from the pig ugly headstock
