Les Paul build -Hugh

[Hugh]

headstock shape looks heaps better Hugh. Personally I would have rounded the top left area rather than having a flat edge.

@ Frankenwashie the truss rod pocket looks in line with the D and G slots in the nut. think it looks like there is more meat to the left of the pocket than the right, but think it should be central

@Wokkaboy- I flirted with rounding one/both edges but in the 'flesh' the design actually doesn't look too bad, especially when you turn it around into the playing position..

@Frankenwashie... you know what, on close inspection the truss rod my just slightly favour the G string slot?? it's hard to tell for sure as there is a little more wood on the left of the headstock than the right, which contibutes to that optical illusion thing you refered to... the whole headstock was never cut quite symetrical I'm thinking??
Your not as jittery and old as you may think afterall!! haha!
