Thats not a bad idea actually...Maybe Henry should've put all those self tuning guitar engineers on a project to figure out how to redesign the headstock of the LP. Maybe some carbon fiber reinforcement that could be marketed as space age tone stabilizer.

I’m honestly surprised that Gibson hasn’t just switched to a truss rod design that doesn’t use a huge nut, like every other maker has done for decades, and claimed it’s innovative.

What eould Be so hard about putting two splines of a denser material on either side of the truss rod Channen into the actual headstock? That’s kinda elementary woodworking.
I've had Gibson guitars for the last 30 years.
Mojo.
Shit happens sometimes, but with all of the mayhem of my working life as a guitarist I've never had this problem with either of my Les Pauls either. On the other hand I am very careful with those guitars because of this. I wonder how many broken headstocks happen because someone left their Les Paul on a guitar stand and their dog knocked it over.I still have FOUR. Imagine the horror.

Yeah
And Gretsch sees an opening, shoots and scores:
A scarf joint would pretty much do it too. You know, like most everyone else with an angled headstock uses.A different headstock angle might help too.
