From: Karlin High:

Back in June, I was typing up some Aiken-heads music for a client. We
ran into a problem shown in the attached PNG and LY files, where
white-head notes end up too dark at lower staff sizes. The problem was
resolved by using thin-variant Aiken heads. However, arriving at that
solution was a little challenging. With web searches, I was able to find
that the thin-variant note heads existed, but not how to access them. A
post to lilypond-user got good help from Abraham Lee.

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2017-06/msg00137.html

The solution was:

aikenHeadsThin = \set shapeNoteStyles = ##(doThin reThin miThin faThin
sol laThin tiThin)

Now I am wondering about having this information posted somewhere more
prominently.
