  • Musikraft and Warmoth strat headstocks

    Is there a difference (shape and size wise) between the Musikraft Charvel strat headstock and the Warmoth strat headstock?

    I don't think there is any difference, although I have not actually measured mine. But they sure look the same. "Fender small headstock".

        Econ, in my opinion there is a slight difference in shape. Neither Warmoth or Musikraft have the same exact shape as a Charvel San Dimas strat headstock. Having said that, I believe that Musikraft is the closest of the two.

          on Musikraft's web site they advertise 4 different strat heads.
          50's, 60's, charvel, and 70's or CBS.

          from the pics i don't see any difference in the actual headstock except for the CBS (large) heastock.
          i did notice, and i could be wrong, but it appeared to me that the 50's has the rounded heel with no fretboard overhang. the 60's has the fretboard overhang. but i don't see any actual headstock difference. i tried to call them and ask them about this but got no answer or return call.

              If you take a pic of the Musikraft Charvel strat headstock and a pic of an original Charvel strat or GMW headstock and compare them side by side or overlap them, there IS a slight difference. However, it is a small difference and so far Musikraft is the closest that I've seen to the original Charvel strat headstock shape. To me it's not enough difference to be that big of a deal. I can see how it would make a difference if someone was wanting an exact replica though.
