Totally pinching this for my current headless build.

The idea behind the project was to remove the weight of the head, and re-balance the guitar. It didn’t get any further than a prototype because I couldn’t find, or make, body end tuners which I liked.
What type of tuners will you use?
Either way, keep it as minimalist as possible, anything else looks daft without a proper headstock.

To me it does feel better than the steinberger style, and I think it allows a more stable mounting

BTW, that headpiece needs either a zero fret with lots of pressure on it (so a sharp string break angle) or a nut. It doesn't hold strings at a consistent separation very well. I think nut is a better option being easier to swap than a zero fret that will have grooves dug into it very soon. I believe @octatonic 's Orion is built like this.
