They're birds. I think birds were around before tampons.

I hate the bird inlays, although i prefer to play with dots nothing looks better than block inlays

the birds are cool.
the only lame part is the headstock

I think PRS headstocks are cool, quite a few companies also think likewise seeing as they have ripped them off.

why does the mira have black rings and buckers? it would look SO much better with rings matched to the guard and chrome buckers. or white p90s, as mike said.

the mira is ok, the starla looks WRONG.

I agree with you 100% on that. It would look sweet with white rings and chrome buckers. I still don't like the contour though, looks weird. I wouldn't care so much if the curve was so gradual that it didn't make that sharp bevel in the top.

That's a floyd rose, hardly the same. I played one of those at GC once, it was such a beautiful guitar but the thing had none of the sustain I associate with les pauls because of the floyd. It was a damn shame really. Only thing I did like about it was the recessed heel.

My bad, I don't keep up Gibson and I saw that when browsing this thread so I put it up.
