What's the fretboard radius on Gibson guitars?

They don't seem to have it listed on their website for any of the models.

I believe it's a 12" radius on most Gibsons.

I read it was 9.5" on vintage Gibsons and modern Gibsons are 10".

Most "modern" Gibsons are 12", but the farther back you go in the past, the lower that number is likely to get...

12" unless specified otherwise, I don't think it changed throughout the years, but if it did, I'd guess it never got smaller than 10
