I can't find a single example of one with a plain peghead with a Google search either. Is it possible that A2's having "The Gibson" peghead logo is the exception to Gibson being consistently inconsistent during the snakehead era? Probably not, but does anybody out there have a snakehead (or a picture of one) with a plain peghead and A2 on the label?
