I was thinking about buying this T-Bird:



The thing is, it's Neck-Through-Body construction so if there was neck-dive, which I expect there will be, how would I move the strap button?

Would I just drill a hole where the neck bolt would normally be?

Thanks in advance.

The T-Bird in that pic must be an older model because all of the newer models I've seen have the strap button moved to the same place as their Gibson counterparts. I've tried them out at my GC with different kinds of straps and the neck dive issue has definitely been fixed.
