I think there are already a couple topics on this so if you search there are probably a ton of experts that know. I honestly think they just charge an extra $100 so people can say they are playing a TP model with a quality shaft (that won't fit that person's game in some, not most, cases)

It's the same head, but the TP is a shaft upgrade.  If you go to a place like Golf Galaxy or Dick's it's still a Fujikura Blur shaft, but it's an upgrade for reasons I don't know.  You can also purchase more shafts and it's considered to be a "TP" version.  TP is labeled on the shaft itself, and the headcover indicates the same.  Basically, you can purchase upgraded shafts for $100 more and you've got what's considered to be a TP version.

Is there any way to get the head only?

Can dealers order only the head and no shaft?
