I wanted to post a pic of the neck-twist scene for 'Exorcist,' but after Googling the pics they scared me too badly to do it.
... I've looked at it so many times, I'm not sure what I'm seeing anymore. Not sure if I'm dealing with a twisted corkscrew, or just a tilted headstock with a straight board, or something in-between :##
I imagine the bass strings exert much more stress on the neck and headstock than the treble strings do, thus causing the headstocks to twist a bit.
Strings generally have the same relative tension regardless of gauge.
