Shame about the headstock, at least it's vaguely snakehead-y... If it was a longer blank you could have a bit more fun but you haven't got much space to play with looking at that... Fully custom neck or OTP? Could you specify the peg hole positions and leave more space at the end of the headstock so you can really go to town?
What kind of neck? Blocks or dots? Bound or unbound? Maple or rosewood/ebony/etc? Fender or Gibson scale? Neck radius?

Hockey stick isn't on the cards, I'm afraid - I've already ordered the neck with a plain headstock. I would like to carve the small bit of real estate at the tip, however, maybe something to echo the wave motif from the pickguard/upper horn, as you suggest.
The pickups will (hopefully, when they start taking orders again) be Creamery humbucker-sized Ric Toaster things:
Although I also love mini-humbuckers, and agree they would look ace. Not sure a humbucker would translate the 12-string jangle that well, though? That's why I was leaning toward single-coils, but I'm open to being educated on this.
