Gibson Historic/Authentic

[Stringmachine]

I tried a Gary Rossington Signature Les Paul today. The finish was all cracked, chiped and faded, changed tuners, worn down pickup covers, worn down finish on the back of the neck an all. But damn, that thing was good! Sounded amazing, and played just as good. Hell, it even smelled old!

I know this is a 250 pc. aged signature series, but they do make them for "normal" customers as well, right?

And what is the difference between aged, historic and authentic?
