Hi All,
I have never done a slotted headstock and was questioning the location of the string hole in relation to the slot? Is it centered or offset? If offset, is it out or in (I would assume towards the outside but not sure)? Also, what head angle do you use? I currently have 12degrees in the one I plan to use.

Thanks in advance for your help.
Mike

Thanks Todd,

That's a big THANKS from me. I don't have plans, because this is a mishmash I'm doing. Sort of on the fly using different designs in one. I've only shown this to Chris V. and Erik H. so far. I'll post pics when almost complete.

I'm trying to combine some new and old with different styles of builds to boot.
Mostly Classic, with new approaches. Some others ideas as well. Most have been done, some not, just trying new ideas.

May not work but what the H! Gotta try:)

Again many thanks,
Mike
