Re: Guitar Design Workbench

Is there a way to create a headless neck? You can design the headstock shape in inkscape and import it. Headless is just a custom head shape. how would i draw that out? Just a squared off end? Yeah, something like this: Selection_593.png Selection_594.png Selection_595.png Headstock.svg
