Non-angled Headstock Question


I still have my first guitar and its a fender strat. I noticed the headstock bows forward a little and was wondering if it was normal, all my other guitars are angled.

I believe strats have the headstock in line with the neck, but that doesn't mean it's bent forwards. They should be parallel.

A pic would be helpful...

Re: Non-angled Headstock Question


A Fender headstock should be perfectly in line with the neck. Do you have a huge amount of relief in the neck?

Yeah I usually setup my guitars with a little more than relief and higher action than most people like. If thats what it is then I should have nothing to worry about?
