Description

From Gibson:

"Gibson Custom introduces Custom Crimson. One-of-a-kind, small batch and art guitars hand crafted under the direction of Michael McGuire. Nicknamed "Crimson" after the red tape that is affixed to these very special guitars as they pass through each crafting stage, these instruments represent the most rare and unique pieces offered by Custom. Each member of Michael's elite team of master luthiers and artists represents the highest level of skill and leadership in the guitar making industry. These men and women have been hand selected by Michael and are held to the highest standards of craftsmanship and creativity. Selection to the Custom Crimson team is considered to be the highest honor and achievement among the Gibson Custom Shop team. Members are encouraged to dream and to create without boundaries while crafting truly captivating instruments to meet the expectations of both Michael and the few who will have the chance to add these landmark instruments to their collection."

This Gibson Custom Crimson '34 L-5 exudes sophistication in both appearance and tone. Finished in an elegant black, it features a stunning ebony fingerboard with block inlays, and the headstock is adorned with the classic Gibson flowerpot inlay. Cosmetically, this instrument is in excellent condition, showing only light wear, including minor surface scratches. With low action, this L-5 plays beautifully and is stage-ready.

OHSC included.
