| It seems interesting, but EMG already sort of offers a similar thing where you can swap out pickups easily because they are using clips instead of hardwiring everything. Some people say they can notice a difference between pickups that are clipped in versus those that are hardwired, so some people may actually see this 'new' feature as undesireable. |

The pickups are held in with magnets, you just pop them off with your bare hands. You can change from humbuckers to P-94's between songs. |

| I think its neat about the magnets, but the wires for the pickups use clips, which I don't have a problem with, but you'd have to mod any other pickups with the clips in order to clip it into the guitar. Its a neat idea, but I'm not gonna pay the extra $1000 or so that Gibson will probably add to the price for this feature |

In that case, it'll be $2000 extra  |

| If it works out to be a good idea they'll probably come out with an Epiphone version, or Squier might make a cheap copy. |
