Does it exist? To my knowledge golds were not produced in '67. Just saw an individual claim on another forum that Gibson introduced in late '67 a gold top with P90s. Does anyone have any info? Yes or no to '67 gold tops?

Cramdog,

The earliest LSLP's were sold first in 68. However, the earliest ones sometimes had 1967 pots in the them. My guess, without reading whatever it was that you read, is that someone is going off the pot codes. This is an incorrect approach to dating a guitar in a vacuum from other features.
