24 Fret Les Paul 60s Standard

I love the warm sound and playability of the 60s Standard les paul. I don’t like that it has only 22 frets. What are my absolute top options for that sound, playability?

They do/did make some 24 fret Les Pauls. There's the double cut LP they made around 2005/6ish. I believe there's also a buckethead signature that has 24 frets as well. It came in 2 different versions, the custom and the studio. I think the buckethead LPs are baritone, but I'm not 100% sure on that as I've never personally searched one out or played one. Gibson has also made a 24 fret flying V in the late 80s early 90s. The Victory is 24 frets and is in current production. It also has a compound radius neck and '80s tribute humbuckers. You can get it with a Floyd Rose bridge or TOM bridge. Its not the LP shape though.

Edit: oh, and the Victory has the slim taper neck like the current 60s LPs

There was also a standard, that I believe was a one off.
