Spot the vintage

The most popular thread I've ever made was 1) a joke and 2) based around literally the most inane/mundane question I could think of. That says something about me, or all of you, or both.

No clue which is original, but I like the look of the top of the one on the right better.Join me in the fight against muscular atrophy!

This is why you have trouble maintaining a relationship with others.

Beyond that I could only guess, but would suspect the one on the right is the vintage guitar.

OK, here'e my guess
Left is the Vintage one in a Museum. Right is fake
Reasons:
Tuneomatic Bridge Positioning on the right guitar is wrong for a vintage LP -this evidence is strong IMO
Nitro is going to darken over time on the body -if one is in a museum -it's presumably a 50s/60s LP and gets some UV exposure causing this process of darkening to continue -but this is just a hunch.

The one on the left is the vintage Gibson, on the right is the Historic copy. It’s the bridge that gives it away for me. The post holes are smaller on the vintage Gibson and the bridge placement is just ever so slightly off.
Also, the one in the left is intonated more accurately.Play more guitar.
