Gibson LP Traditional 2015 - Acceptable Bookmatching?

[palindrome]

I find it quite difficult to arrive at good pics. The first two samples here illustrate the light-reflection thing I mentioned (mostly some kind of photographic artifact but perhaps revealing nonetheless), and then I'll add a "nude picture" (the pickguard has a snap-on mechanism, the screw being actually a dummy, so there's no screwholes in the body).

However, I'm perfectly fine now with the esthetics. I do like the guitar!

palindrome, I think it looks really nice; the fretboard is really dark and that is a desired trait. I see that you are a knob...swapper.

I think the guitar looks fine. The important things are: how does it feel, and how does it sound? Play it (or trade it) in good health!

Like all pedants, I want symmetry (think Mr. Monk).

Am I the only one who sees the irony of Mr. "Palindrome" wishing to have the grain of his guitar be the same forward and backward?

Mr. Monk indeed!

Does it play great, does it sound great, does it feel great? Those are my 3 most important qualifications when keeping a guitar!

I am very interested in this for another guitar. How does it work?

EDIT: Never mind, thanks, found it.
