I thought you'd rung in on that other thread I mentioned, but upon closer inspection there were comments from others, though they espoused similar opinions. But just so it's clear - Would you say an early teens F2/F4 might tend to be just a bit lesser quality than late teens, as Gibson was just a bit shy of hitting its peak? As a general rule of thumb, that is. With Gibson. anomalies abound always.
But that's just my opinion. I could be wrong. - Dennis Miller
