I'd say that there were times in the 20's where they did "other" things....1921 was one of those years with all the truss rod...aluminum bridge.....Cremona brown......adjustable bridge...etc etc.
Also I had a 1927 F4 that had an elevated fretboard and if I remember correctly there were one or two long necks F4's done in that time frame also.
and you have owned a bunch of those A-50's with all their different inlay patterns....let alone the F7, F10 and F12 models of the 30's that you mentioned and own....
When the boys were always doing odd things and then when it comes to banjos where parts are parts etc. ....there are a ton of out of sequence instruments out there
Gibson has always been a "non" standard company
