Personally I think R4s look wrong somehow, so that would probably drive my decision more than anything else!

On a practical level, you’re going to get more accurate intonation with an R6.
I'd much prefer a R6
probably go with a R6.
it’s a Murphy’s Lab light relic. Here it is with my ES195. The Bigsby was my addition, cos I love a Bigsby.
I have to thread spare ballends over the strings before fitting them, which is not the end of the world but I have to make sure I have a few spares in the case.

Not particularly useful but there it is.
R4 for me.
Incredibly responsive under the fingers. It just feels fully connected like one whole thing. And the P90s with the '50s wiring they've used makes it bright and twangy if you want it but stick some dirt on it and it's a monster.

Don't discount a '68 reissue - basically an R6 with a slimmer neck.
It's worth saying that some with the R4 find they have to replace the wraparound bridge for a compensated one. for what I do, I've found the standard one to be surprisingly accurate (though I can't figure out why) so haven't needed to, despite having a Mojoaxe one on hand to do so.
