I was looking at an English guitar publication this weekend that had a
picture of a Tanglewood FST (Fender Strat Tanglewood ?) Deluxe guitar.
It looked like a nice clone (aka Tokai, Charvel etc.) of the
traditional Strat including the head stock shape. Anyone know anything
about it? If it's new, how do they copy the head shape without Fender
breathing down their neck (no pun intended :) ?

Fender just cut a deal with somebody (Chandler I think?) to allow them
to clone the Strat headstock shape for their replacement necks. So
perhaps Fender is loosening up and offering this arrangement elsewhere
as well.
