A friend has just bought, brand new from a Gibson dealer, what he thought was a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60's spec in Iced Tea. But the control knobs and tuners are '50's spec (plain knobs and Klusons). It should have reflector knobs and Grovers.
No idea what the pickups are yet - he is discussing it with the dealer so isn't taking anything apart.
The Iced Tea colour option is not available in '50's spec, and the serial number and paperwork all make it '60's..........what gives with the hardware?
I thought Gibson had improved QC - this seems a bit of a blunder.
