Kiesel has had a bunch of different headstocks (and still does offer different ones), this particular one is a variation of one they had for decades when they were Carvin. I assure you SX has nothing to do with any choices made at Kiesel

There's only so many shapes you can make a headstock, unless you're really going to go 'out there'
Looking at the original post, my scratch build headstock looks pretty similar, and I was trying to be different!
