Bullshit.
There is no structural or tonal advantage to the vintage tenon over the same kind of tenon that is a wee bit shorter. If anything the newer tenon has a wider shape that retains more of the necks wood and increases wood to wood contact for what may be better tone transfer.
If you have to have a vintage tenon pony up and buy one of the excellent new TH Replicas or any pre 2015 R series, if you want a top line Custom Shop Standard there are the CS series.
I don't think Gibson will have any trouble selling them.
Al, what's the difference between the neck tenon on these and the pre historics?
