How do they get away with using the Fender headstock shapes?

Nash makes awesome instruments, but they really overdo it with the relic'ing, IMO

Those are just parts basses with relic jobs. They use Allparts, Warmoth etc. I briefly had a Jazz of theirs that was an allparts neck on a Warmoth body. Had a lovely gap in the neck pocket because they didn’t fit 100%. Sold it.

Didn't realize that. And at Nash's prices, you're really just paying for the relic'ing work then. I'll pass.

You nearly get a Fender custom shop for that price or you could build your own Bass with Warmoth/Allparts stuff, like I did with my 1966 Fender Slab body Precision Bass
And yes, this Nash Relicing is toooo much

OK, cool! I thought Fender used these on almost all basses in 1966. Apparently not all! :)
