Default New pickguard shape?

In the pictures from NAMM I noticed the pickguards looked more like Martins or some other conventional pickguards. I hope that is not what is going to be on the new guitars. I know that is a small issue, but I think they're ugly. I just hope they still offer the current clear pickguards because that is what I use.

I realize the shape of a pickguard might be a trivial issue, but I agree. There is a certain style to what we all see on our current Taylors, almost like it's a signature shape. I'd hate to see it change.

I believe those were Martins from the Martin display you saw in those pictures.

It wasn't just the pick guards. The whole things look like Martins, even down to the name on the headstock!

Those Taylor boys think of everything, don't they?!
