Gibson L-00 Original Vintage Sunburst Acoustic Electric Guitar
L-00 Original - A small body with vintage charm and balanced tonality
Gibson was a pioneer in the development of small body guitars in the beginning of the 1900s with its "L-Series Small Body" acoustics. These smaller Gibsons deliver a tonality that is best described in Gibson's 1934 catalog as a sound of "perfect balance." The L-00 Original, while achieving all the advantages of an acoustic that is comfortable to play in your home, still produces Gibson's rich full sound.
The new L-00 Original features a classic white script Gibson logo, subtle antiquing on the top and back binding, and Golden Age nickel tuners. The body is mahogany with spruce, a perfect duo for warm acoustic tone. The mahogany neck has a slim taper profile and is capped with a rosewood fretboard. This is a classic guitar, simple, refined and the perfect choice for anyone need a small-body acoustic.
This compact acoustic-electric guitar boasts impressive tone, despite its smaller size. Its ergonomic design makes it incredibly comfortable to play, while its combination of boldness, mid-range projection, and distinct harmonic tones make it stand out. With its wide range of dynamics, it excels in both delicate fingerpicking and vigorous strumming. Plus, the top-quality LR Baggs VTC electronics offer superb amplified sound.
A hardshell case is included.
Hand-crafted in Bozeman, MT, the L-00 Original provides vintage vibe with timeless sound. There really isn't a better small-body acoustic out there.
