I’ve had both, and I think if one changes the USA Standard electronic harness and pickups to Historic specs, you would be very close, to the point where it would be very difficult to tell them apart tonaly in a blind taste test.
Apart from the different electronics and pickups, traditionally there was also a big difference in feel, made less now by the new Standards, but these are still less refined feeling compared to the Historics in my opinion. So if I had the wherewithal, I’d still try to get a Historic most likely. Especially since weight is a big deal to me (I prefer light ones).
