    Tuning Pegs with longer shafts??

    Are there tuning pegs with longer shafts? On headstocks like Gibson or warwick the strings angle behind the nut. This could be avoided if the tuning pegs for the a and d would have longer shafts and the peg holes could be done more to the center of the headstocks. Does any manufacturer make these?
