Oddly enough, if I ever get a wild hair and decide to change my Porkers for something else, the up swept fishtails is what I was going to put on, I really like their old school look especially on a Springer.

Yeah, that's exactly why I like them! I dig the old school / chopper style, too, as you can see.
