It makes me really sad to see the regular Warwick headstock on there as opposed to the regular Buzzard headstock.

They only use the proper headstock on the neck-through versions. They definitely do a lefty version of the Buzzard headstock, just not on the bolt-on model. Unless you pay extra and go custom shop, I suppose.

Bolt-on or neck-through, what would be so hard about making the Buzzard headstock either way? Seems to me they'd sell a lot more Buzzards if they offered it on the bolt-on model...

In this case, the standard headstock uglifies the bass, in general. What good is a Buzzard Bass without its long neck and beak? This is being a lazy luthier.

in my opinion, even with the original headstock, it still is a promising contender for
"ugliest bass since fucking ever" .

I'll reserve that comment for the bastardized "Smith" that got yanked from ebay the other day ;)

In the grand scheme of things, there are far uglier basses if you ask me.
