Thanks, guys!  I wasn't quite sure about the headstock but it seems to meeting general approval.  Ditto the logo.

The logo looks great as does the headstock.  I built a TB with a headstock modeled after an Epi and I'm planning to use that shape on my future Jag-style basses.

I'm fixin' a hole where the rain gets in..........cuz I'm built for a kilt!

That's a nice clean design, should work well with the Jag body.

I like that design a lot Doc. A blend of both worlds but done to look natural.
I think I've already commented on how good I think Carlo's design is. Both look naturally right and balanced to my eyes.
Digresion our specialty!

Actuaaly been averaging 3 gigs a month for a while.  the JAEbird has been to about 8 gig s already  and now it has 2 shinny new 63 pups to show off.  actually need the paint for the pickup routes as the thunderbuckers are a little larger then the barts that originally were installed.  3  out door shows coming up so one  or both of the JAEbirds will get to play through some larger rigs probably a 2 15 ev cab and a 6 10 with a couple of ampeg ss heads....  or maybe i should go with some tubey grindness with a hybrid or 2.  just got an eden head that i really like but won't do 2 ohms....

Love to see some pix and hear some clips.

I've resized the pup routes for ThunderBuckers, also a 250K tone pot works better than 500k, I put one in your II today with a pair of .047 caps, it's a lot better tone curve.  I'll send you one with your bass as well as the touch up...did you want a case?
