How to shape a custom guitar peghead

Making a custom guitar peghead will give your guitar a unique one-of-a-kind vibe. However, cutting a custom shape into a headstock can be trickier than it looks. By first making a template, you can work out all the kinks before cutting into your project’s headstock. Using a paper pattern, jigsaw and router, you can easily make a custom-shaped peghead template that you can use to route a perfectly smooth edge that’s true to your design and looks professional.
