Andrew Paul
The cat's meow
Yeah, just cosmetic. I like the looks of metal tuner buttons or wood. On my Paul’s guitar it has the fake ivory type buttons, looks ok but I’d prefer wood.Love my SS. Those grey Teisco Del Ray-esque tuner buttons are the only cheap looking part on an otherwise pretty guitar. Work great, just homely. But even on a ‘63.5 era guitar... locking tuners (on my ‘18 model anyway). I don’t buy it.
SS is a nice guitar. I would prefer the normal PRS trem bridge but it wasn’t made for me. I wonder if you replace the trem with a core PRS one. Then I’d buy an SS. Remember just my personal preference.
