Talk:Headstock

message: I suggest merge, as "matching headstock" (if it is really a verifiable content) is closely related to "headstock", if fact, is only one of possible variants. --GreyCat (talk) 10:56, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge [[Matching headstock]] 

message: Maybe someone can add the designs for various extended range guitar headstocks.  Things like Ibanez 7 string, 8 string, possibly halo 7-10 string headstocks.  Maybe also the Ibanez Xiphos 7, it has a unique reverse headstock.  Any other extended range guitar headstocks out there would be great too.  Perhaps also some Schecter.

thread_title:  More headstocks - please add 7 to 10 string headstocks 

message: This article currently looks at 20th century US electric guitar head stocks, and would be improved by examples from other eras, other countries, and other stringed instruments; including comparisons with the violin family.--10:52, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  More headstocks please 

message: Several of the headstocks from the last 100 years of electric guitars are covered here.  I have found little information on either banana- or hockey stick-style headstocks (like you might see on some Kramers.  George Lynch also has a wicked such headstock on the ESP Kamakaze)  I'd offer that this not only needs its own section in the main Headstock page, but its own page should exist.
:While I'm not convinced that there will be sufficient notability for a separate article, I do agree that there is room for inclusion of a separate "Other headstocks" section in this article. , who uploaded the current images, is still active. They might be able to create some pictures on the more unusual designs. - Ryk72 'c.s.n.s.' 04:38, 8 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: No problem, I can do them if you suggest it. In fact, it's a very simple task: one just have to set up a relevant guitar stock photo as a background in a SVG editor like Inkscape, trace the outline and remove the background. However, I'm also concerned with notability and whatever we should include or not. I suggest to include widely recognized stuff. For one possible metric, I'd suggest to look up various custom guitar shops to see if they list such an option of headstock to select or not. Also, I don't see much point to include 8-strings, 10-strings, etc, as they are usually enlarged versions of originals with more space to accomodate more pegs - thus it won't be really distinguishable by an outline unless we'll include peg holes outlines everywhere. --GreyCat (talk) 08:06, 8 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi , I agree that this is a good & workable approach which will help in determining what should be included. Thanks for your work on the current images & for the offer to work on more.Hi , As the OP for this section, would you be able to provide stock photos, and also to assist with the notability questions? - Ryk72 'c.s.n.s.' 11:07, 8 January 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Guitars manufactured by Ernie Ball Music Man tend to have a unique 4x2 headstock layout as opposed to the standard 3x3 or 6-inline. (Music Man basses tend to have 3x1 or 4x1 headstocks as well.)
Offset headstocks like these could have a mention on this article, as they are quite notable for the layout. It's likely there are also other companies that produce similar headstocks, but as of now Ernie Ball is the only prominent manufacturer of the 4x2/3x1 layout that I know of.
