I have a 68 also, those play and sound a bit different from the 50s stuff, but very nice guitars with good neck carves. This one is a wrap tail bridge and is from 1955. The ecological laws that passed in the mid 60s drastically altered the quality of hardwoods that were available, the mahogany got much denser giving less overtones and a harder sound. Different pickup build methods etc too
