I'm new to this so would appreciate an authorative opinion. I've just bought a R9 and asked whether it was V1;2;3 or 4. But I thought this letter referred only to 1960 re issues. Help anyone?
Wow, thanks for replying, thats interesting, so the V3 , R0 gives you an even thinner neck than a typical R0? So would this resemble an player modded example? Or is this something that Gibson did in the production of the 1960 Les paul?V = version and it only refers to R0s.
V1 is the R9 neck.
V2 is the typical R0 neck.
V3 is slimmer.
Never heard of a V4.

My 2018 R0 neck is only a touch smaller than my 2019 R9.My 2016 Custom Shop Historic SG is the same size as my R0, as well, barely noticeable
Maybe the originals but the reissues have the same tenon across the rangeI remember Joe Bonamassa mentioning,that the 1960 Burst also has a Shorter Tenon? Thats interesting,
