How to fit 12 strings on a Telecaster without swapping out the neck

guitarz.blogspot.com:
The Fender Telecaster has a small, compact headstock, so it's hard to imagine that same headstock being used for a 12-string version of the Telecaster. However, this enterprising eBay seller has developed a very cunning and neat way to fit 12 machine heads onto a Tele headstock. The converted Tele also includes a bridge conversion with Gotoh 12-string saddles.

Neat, but I wonder how fiddly it would be to change strings?

This Squier Telecaster 12-string conversion is currently listed on eBay with a Buy It Now price of $529.99.
