My project guitar with hollow walnut body and ambrosia maple neck; Neck Pickup- Seymour Duncan SP90-1n Vintage; Bridge pickup - BKP (either Stockholm or Supermassive - compliments of @eSGEe - it used to be in the Dolsy SG). I call this one Freddy because the build was a nightmare

PRS! I love their wrap around. It really may be the best around (pun intended!)
The Klusons on mine are the ones you would have gotten if you wanted Kluson locking tuners “years ago”.
I got them years ago...2011-2012. I wanted direct replacement, no drilling, same footprint on the headstock...that’s what they were making back then. I think the ones like you have came out around 2014-15 IIRC.
The style I have is very much like the old Schallers that are on my Strat(and have been since around 1990-92). They work flawlessly. The caps screw on, and drive a pin through the hole for the string...similar concept to yours, but yours drive a pin through/around the gear mechanism...much like the Sperzels I have on a couple other guitars(the ones in my sig pic).
Aesthetically, I’d take the ones you have in a heartbeat...but they just didn’t exist yet. Mechanically, I’m happy with them.
I may pick up a set(or two) of the new style at some point...for my LP Mahogany Studio, and “maybe“ my SG Standard P90.
Ray this is the best made wrap around ive ever tried. PRS aluminum. like billet aluminum. I got it for 100$ to. Now i dont know if anyone other than RVA has tried to buy a PRS wrap around tailpiece but there spendy $$$$$$ . So 100 bucks was a steal. Love it.
