I wonder if they would sell just the case with the gold lining. I guess I could ask, since I already have a 68 LPC. :spabout

Actually, I meant a hypothetical new production 68 GT Reissue based on the current aged 50th but unaged vs. an R6.

If your "most weigh a ton" comment is towards the original 60s guitars --- Total production in the original era was probably around 2000 instruments, so I am not completely sure where you are getting the "most weigh a ton" thing. Most I have seen are within half a pound of 9lbs. Pretty normal for an LP.

Moon hit it on the head. The 60's LP were not the boat anchors of the 70"s. My '69 GT weighs in at 8.5lbs.
