There are a few out there with  crown headstocks. If and when,it's how I'd order one.

I had a fretless Spoiler made for me back in '99 with the crown headstock.  The are a couple of pics of it in the Spoiler gallery...I think it's under  '99 Spoiler - Cocobolo fretless

I know it well! It's a beauty. My dream is a quilted  maple 3/4 spoiler short scale with signature electronics, and a cocobolo series 1 reg spoiler,  both w/ crown or crown omega headstocks!

That's a pretty bass for sure.  I love the sound of Mahogany connected to a shorter scale neck.
