Still have fond memories of the RL-600 I had when I was a kid, would love to pickup a black/gold one of these if I ever had the opportunity.

Polarizing headstock, but I always loved these guitars.

Here’s one of the most… um… interesting ones…

The Collings slotted headstock is a thing of beauty.

The back is nice too. Favorite volutes thread when?

His extra touches with multi-layer and purfling are very nice.
I hesitated, but ultimately picked his 3x3 instead of 6 inline though.

Also...does the back of the headstock count?
'cause I freaking love it on mine:

Others I had that I also liked a lot:

Ultimate Weapon is the pointier, metal version...

some of my personal favorites:

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

I like hockey sticks, bananas, etc

While we're at it

Oh and IMO one of the most underrated Gibson headstocks; the blunt, les pointy Flying V headstock

 

[Turd Ferguson]

I guess I like 'em pointy.

The Anderson Bobcat has always been a perfect "form meets function" 3x3, IMO.

For my own guitars, I really tend to prefer 3+3, and tend to prefer the more slim, straight-ish string pull designs. I have this shape on two of my Carvin/Kiesels:

When they are the larger 3+3 type, I appreciate asymmetry like that Collings, or:

Beautiful mate

Had the same thoughts about asking Koen to change my order from reverse to a 3+4... but i love the spilt headstock too ... arghhh ...

Also mine won't have any purflings running tight on budget with this one

Always liked the Pacifica headstocks.

Everything is expensive these days, but I actually think those are exceptionally good value when you see that a Prestige with bad fret ends and loose neck can cost 2k$...
Or a Made-in-China Jackson for 1.8k$

Anyway...Hope yours turns out how you wished. If you like it half as much as I like mine, you'll be over the moon.
