• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

Hmm... Interesting Tweet from Gibson Today

What were the main differences with the '68 GT from the earlier Standard/Sunbursts?

Hi Thundermtn!

If one wants to get really nit picky, you could find a fair amount of differences. But to the vast majority of us, the main difference is the headstock angle. It is shallower than the 50's models by a few degrees.

14 versus 17 ? which I believe were the vintage 50's
