Or all gold reflector knobs, this is not a bad idea like some ES330 and ES335 without gold hardware

i think he is referring to the gold paint?

Oh, gotcha. Here's the quote from the guy I bought it from. He's a professional luthier, and owns a guitar shop.

 

"In regards to the gold band on the headstock, it is actually a touch-up from when I removed the original nut to replace with the Tusq version. Gibson glued the original in so well a small piece of the black headstock overlay chipped off on the corner next to the nut slot so I touched it up with a gold leaf pen rather than see a visible line of where I glued the chip back on. I was just too busy at the time to do the touch-up in black, wet sand, and re-clearcoat in satin nitro to try to blend it all for a minor cosmetic issue on a shop guitar."
