OK, it was an acoustic guitar, but just a few days ago we demonstrated this to a customer in the shop who was having a problem with feedback. Just putting a capo on the headstock made it far less bad. Really!

Regarding the headless thing, my understanding (correct me if I'm wrong) is that by not having a headstock the neck should be even stiffer. Headstocks tend to be wider and thinner than the neck so are relatively 'flappy' for lack of a better term. Some basses e.g. US Fenders and Sadowskys are deliberately built with thicker headstocks specifically to help the response of the neck.
"Premier Guitar: I have to ask why do you make the headstock thicker?
Roger Sadowsky: I have found that mass on the headstock improves tone and eliminates or lessens dead spots. In fact, I have found that lightweight tuners will make dead spots worse. "
Now I'm wondering if people buy sets of different size clamps to "tune in" on the right weight for each particular guitar
I'm laughing and at the same time thinking, Amazon...
Anyone know what to look for in B&Q etc. that would do the same job without the cost?
