Ken Lawrence Soloist???

[Death by Uberschall]

Can somebody photo-shop a Ken Lawrence headstock onto a Soloist? I gotz my wheels ah turning.  :headbang1:

Are you looking at the same thing im looking at? =)

If you are, dont worry, Im not going to buy it...

 

[Death by Uberschall]

Not buying it, just wanting to see what it would look like on a soloist. Maybe as a reverse would be a better look.

Are you going to put it on Bum Unit?

Then it'll look like a can opener.

 

[AGWAN]

not great... but it gets you in the ballpark.

 

[DangerousR6]

I think it looks good on a soloist.... :icon_thumright:

 

[JaySwear]

me too. couldn't see it before, but it looks pretty decent

 

[OzziePete]

Wouldn't it become neck heavy with a largish headstock and a smallish body?  :icon_scratch:

 

[Super Turbo Deluxe Custom]

Maybe, but the strap button location is above the 12th fret.  Shouldn't be any different than a normal Strat headstock that is on a chambered body.

Nope, I have one o Krank n stein and it's not neck heavy at all... :icon_biggrin:

Looks pretty good to me! Deffinately not something I would have thought of. :icon_thumright:

Man, you guys are as worried about neck heavy than 1800's people with Werewolf and daughters loosing virginity :laughing7:
Some guitars are neck heavy, specially thin bodies with HUGE headstock, but I don't see it as often as the fear of it

I have a KL in Mable/Ebony with a Floyd nut on it mated to a mahogony Z body.  It's not neck heavy at all, it's perfectly balanced.
It's the tuners that add the weight more than the wood.  My KL 3x3 is no heavier (probably lighter) than a KWS or Jackson inline 6 considering the bulk of the hardware on the KL is moved over towards the nut that the latter.

Are you going to put it on Bum Unit?

No way, Burn Unit is perfect as is. I was just curious as to how the body and headstock would look together.

 

[Death by Uberschall]

AGWAN, can you do the same pic with the headstock in the normal direction?

 

[DangerousR6]

:icon_biggrin:

 

[AGWAN]

I'm just glad someone finally did a nice one!

 

[D-rock]

that is quite cool indeed. I have been interested in the headstock for awhile but couldn't think of what kind of body shape it would go well with.

 

[Death by Uberschall]

It's not too bad, but I don't think the Soloist is radical or angular enough for it.  :icon_scratch:
