I believe their suit was based on body shape.

I guess if you laid a LP down and traced the body shape on paper, then did the same with the PRS the traced shape would be very similar. I think where they are most different is the subtle lines of the PRS. The LP body does not have the sculpted lines of the PRS.

The point of contention that I don't see getting past is how similar is too similar...

Actually, Henry Ford's invention was the assembly line to make cars affordable. He did not invent the automobile and he did try to sue over 20 companies when they used the assembly line idea.

Enough history, the question you may want to ask is, if you invented something, came up with a revolutionary idea, would you be pissed off if another company came along and made money off it, without giving you anything and took business away from you. I know I would be.

Ideas and designs are something that is protected by law. If you want to enable people to steal other's ideas, just because they can give it to you cheaper and not necessarly better, then move to another country where that is common practice. Personnaly, I want my ideas protected.

Actually Eli Whitney (the Cotton Gin) invented the assembly line and modular parts. His estate should sue Every living Person.
