So as long as it's considered in the overall design it shouldn't be a big concern.

The Tele headstock is hardly cumbersome. I can't believe there is any more volume of wood than a 3x3 design. I don’t see the problem. The Tele headstock is hardly cumbersome.

A 3x3 or 4x2 headstock with lightweight tuners could really do the trick. I’m in complete agreement. A 3×3 or 4×2 headstock with lightweight tuners could really do the trick.

The Adrian Legg model is the first thing that really opened my eyes to ergonomic guitar designs. And I've been leaning more that direct just for ease of construction. A 3x3 headstock with mini tuners isn't that bad a choice if the rest of the guitar is well balanced. It’s funny.
