I noticed the recent rise in price of the Snakeheads, I read expressions like "the snakehead sound", and the confusion increases beyond logic. I can understand the number of snakeheads alone as the reason for the increase in price, but the "snakehead sound" is not logical. It is just a headstock, nothing else is different. There is always surprises like the A1 I just bought, it sounds as good as my F2 and that's with the old strings still on it. But a "snakehead sound". No I ain't buying it. I understand the Lloyd Loar years and his innovations and the F5. Again it's numbers and the Bill Monroe factor, not "beast", "monster", etc. BTW, what does "butter " play like?
