If that were really an olympic white '68 I truly doubt that it would still be white......I don't care HOW it was stored. :wink:

For instance, this is my "white" Gibson Les Paul......and this is only a '92.

There's more wrong with it than there is right.

But on a positive note, it does sorta resemble a Fender Strat......

(if you squint a little)
