Some of my Headstocks [ not cbg related.] Part one.

Posted by Taffy Evans on November 15, 2018 at 11:27pm in Other stuff - off topic, fun stuff, whatever

Hi, here are some of my pegheads/headstocks use over the years. The first being the headstock with the scroll on the top.

It was going to be the design that would be my signature, I tell the story in the "what's in a Headstock thread", but I find that each guitar seems to need something different that suits the guitar and/or the owner. Even if the shape is the same for a couple of guitars the detail will be different. Thanks for looking.

This design used in Northern Territory Aus.
The design for Queensland AustSpecial Custom One of the solid body styles

The Parlor guitar style
To be continued....Taff

Hi, here is Part 2 of a selection of my regular instrument pegheads.

These include: Regular 6 string acoustic and electric guitar, 12 string, mandolin, Weisenborne Lap slide, Resonator and slotted peghead.

Thanks for looking Taff.

  Hi, I found one more headstock. It is the same shape as the one above with the Sabre style sword inlaid. This one was for that owner father, my son. His interest is Japanese marshal arts, so I inlaid a Samurai sword.

Very nice inlay work. Also notice the quality finish.

Beautiful work. I especially like the inlays, and thank you for building 6-stringers.

Yes, they're all great! Really nice work! My favorites are the flamboyant one with scroll and butterfly and the straight and simple one for parlor guitars. I totally agree: each individual instrument calls for an individual headstock.
