I have never even seen a '50s Les Paul up close, but I am sure that is true just based on my own personal experience with two 1962 SG Specials that felt like they were built by different companies! One (mine) had a very small neck, a 10" radius on the fretboard, and nicely rounded edges everywhere. Just a joy to hold & play. The other had a wide, fat neck and sharp edges on all the body contours. I hated it.
Same model, same year.
So yeah, some of the best and worst guitars I have ever tried in shops were Gibsons. Most were fine but some were just wonky. 1960s through early 1990s. After that I stopped constantly shopping guitars and have had almost no contact with any made after 1996 or so.
