Backwrapping was done on old Les-Pauls to lessen the string tension on the ABR 1 bridge, the bridge & the thin posts were prone to bending or collapsing . Older Les-Pauls (Historics too) have the neck at a steeper angle. Most modern Les-Pauls have less neck angle & dont need to be backwrapped.
Ah, Sorry, The older the Paul the shallower the neck angle.
