Great looking top on that one!
Yeah, my Cadillac Green H-150 has a small dent from the pickguard as well. Unfortunate but not a huge deal, still would be nice if they'd just set them up with a sufficient gap, it's definitely doable. I don't remember how clean the wiring itself was but the cavity in general was definitely not as cleanly finished as my R8 was. That being said, that is and the undented top are about the only things the R8 had over my H-150. Fretboard wood quality, binding quality, nut prep, etc are all significantly better on my Heritage. My R8 had very obvious and noticeable binding ridges on the neck and body and while the fretboard wood wasn't awful by Gibson standards it was not in the same league as my Heritage.
