Does anyone know how prevalent custom color 1964-65 reverse TBirds with the matching headstocks were?
I've only seen photos of a few. Most of the custom color ones I've seen have had the black headstock with only the edge painted to match the body.
Anyone know what determined which way a custom color one was painted? Did it have to do with the particular color, or as-ordered by the customer....or just whatever mood the paint guy was in that day?
Also....was there any standard rule on custom colored TBirds as far as Gibson painting the control cavity to match or was it still silver? Same with the truss cavity? Or was the rule "NO rules!" and they all just vary?
Anyone have good photos of original custom colored examples with and without the headstocks matching?
Here's a nice '64 Cardinal Red one
