Well the 2015 specs are

 

New and Improved in 2015

Gibson G FORCE Tuning System: Faster, more accurate, additional tunings

Zero Fret Adjustable Nut (patent applied for): Added action adjustment

Upgraded Tuneomatic bridge with titanium saddles: Ease of height adjustment and sustain

Wider neck and fingerboard: Increased playing area with same string spacing

Comprehensive wood selection and grading: Rarest and finest materials for best instruments

Thicker Rosewood Fingerboard: Increased mass for sustain

Pearl Inlays: Better appearance and value

Smoother sanded, buffed and oiled fingerboard: Improved playability and feel

Comprehensive Setup (Lower Frets, Improved Plek, Intonation): Silky smooth action and bending, improved intonation

More robust cables: Stronger signal strength

Removable Pickguard: Choice with no holes in body

Les Paul 100th birthday signature: Honoring a genius with a facsimile of his actual signature taken from a pickguard autographed by Les.

Les Paul Hologram: Authenticity and tribute

New & Improved Hardshell Case: Improved protection (up to 15 foot drop), sleek, ergonomic, made in USA

 

 

I think the real MAIN difference apart from the cosmetic stuff like the logos are the big fat necks the 2015s have. Ohh and the removable pickguard of course [rolleyes]

Murphy, the big guy with the straggly beard and droopy mustache that is on the Gibson YouTube videos. Yeah, him.

He use to give the guitars their final polish with his facial hairs. If it was close to lunch, the food in the beard gave the guitars a swirled woody look. This treatment was reserved for the vintage custom traditional guitars

 

Well, anyway, so that guy Murphy, he dies, see so the 2015s don't have the look.

I'm sorry. There will never be another Les Paul like a 2014.

We miss you Murphy.

the main differences between 2014 and 2015 models are pretty commonly known.

 

2015 has wider necks/lower frets, the auto-tuners are re-branded and have updated software, the wires are thicker, there are decidedly creepy holograms of les paul on the back of the headstocks and on the front a scribbly signature, you get a big plastic guitar case now, and the brass nut which gibson will have to send you a replacement for because they fail.

 

id reap the benefits of 2014. among great specs and great quality, don't forget the price difference. 2014's can be had for quite a bit less these days.
