Classico?
« on: February 15, 2017, 12:06:30 PM »
I saw this on FB today,  is this a 5 string Classico headstock?

Nope, definitely an NS Design (as in Ned Steinberger). The Classico peghead has the outline of the classic Crown headstock. (Picture on loan from geepee's Showcase thread http://club.alembic.com/index.php?topic=22315.0 .)

NS Designs for sure. I have one. Tony Levin has played one for many years.

FWIW, there's a Classico for sale just an hours' drive from here... I've been meaning to go test drive that thing, but am deathly afraid of what happens next if I like it.  :P

Will definitely take some pictures.  (with their permission of course)

Adriaan,  of course.  I should have looked a little closer. 
It was a little like the candy bar impulse buy in the supermarket line.
