I am working on something at the moment and i was hoping to use some 3x3 machine heads i have.

In your opinion what 3x3 headstocks go well with a ''strat like'' body.

I dont mind these.

If anyone has a jackson with a headstock like that can you pm me? thanks,

How about just a regular 'ol gibson style headstock (minus the pointy thingies maybe). Can't recollect seeing that on a strat, but I'd think that could look pretty cool.

Yeah it could but i forgot to mention i would prefer the strings go straight instead of angle out after the nut.

The original Fender solidbody prototype "snakehead".

Rickenbacker 480.

The Schecter and PRS look cool. I like the straight pull also.

There's also the Morton.

And there's also an old-fashioned Dano.

have feeling that this requirement will make all ideas look the same, at least how the tuners are located (look at all pics submitted so far). but the headstock shape can be anything. if that is what you intended, then :fing2:
 
Re: 3x3 headstocks that go with strat style bodies.

make the strat horns pointy and a pointier version of the pointy jackson headstock, apply to it some kind of pinup gilr or hot girl graphic finish, put a nice floyd, your high output p'ups of preference and rock the hell out of that thing, if not well i just left you an idea for your next build.....

hmmm with pointy horns i think any of these would fit nice in a strat
