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

They all look great Taff I dig them all . Thanks for the look see mate . 

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.

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

Very nice inlay work. Also notice the quality finish.

Some of my designs.

There’s great Ted thanks for the link mate . 

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.
