Headstock Design
2005-07-24, 3:52 PM #1
So... I'm assembling a guitar, and I need some ideas for a unique headstock. It doesn't have to be complicated, just unique.

I claim rights to use all designs posted here. :p

Here's the original headstock:

Do you plan on putting any saddles on? Came up with this one, have some other ideas if you don't plan on putting saddles on, ( or in somewhere other than their usual place)

I know, it'd be a major pain in the butt to cut, but I thought it looked cool.

I think I'll go with the last one. Because it's easiest.

Also you can stab people with it.

it looks a bit like an exagerated ibanez head.

I like calling people ibanez heads.

That's funny cause I was looking right at my ibanez head when I was doing it :P

I like it cause you can stab people while playing on stage!

D'OH! :(

I like the flame one too, but I'm afraid I'd break the headstock cutting it out, and considering it's a brand-new neck, I'd rather not do that.

I don't really think it resembles an Ibanez head that much at all..

here are some more ideas; the last one is basicly z@nardi's with another curth cut into it.

If I had the techincal ability to design a headstock, i would definately make it just like a martin.

I think that the traditional martin headstock would look so cool on an electric guitar.

Think while it's still legal.

That's awesome. It's like the final step of becoming a jedi, when you have to design and build your own lightsaber. I'd love to start on one too someday, but it'll probably be a cipres flamenco guitar or rosewood/spruce classical..

Can we see some more shots?
