I like how the newer ones play just fine and I don't mind the small headstock either. But, I really like the look of clover tuners like Hipshots - I'd pay a little more if Gibson used them no problem. I personally like the 3 point bridge, but they have a two point that was used on the Les Paul OSB, why not use it? Obviously they can chrome plate pickups, they did on the Flying V........ They just need to get it together instead of shooting themselves in the foot yet again.
