4 Ribbons for me.

 

Echoes of Orwell here?

 

Two ribbons bad. Four ribbons good.

 

Four ribbons good. Two ribbons better.

 

All guitars are equal, but some guitars are more equal than others.

 

Oh well, only a Gibson is good enough.

The ones that have stood out to me in clips on YT etc have always tended to be 4 ribbon models, so maybe the effect on tone from a reduced break angle is a sound I've found I like, in fact one of the best I've heard is in Takeshi Furusawa's Abbey Road Medley video, that one even has the adj bridge. The TV model I have definitely has less of an break angle than my other 3 Gibson guitars, perhaps not as shallow as the one listed away near the beginning of the thread, but certainly less than the others.

 

There is no best, that's why they make both.....
