Description

This 1941 Gibson L-0 is a truly special guitar, blending pre-war charm with modern playability to create an instrument that’s both a joy to hear and to hold. It has been fully refinished and refretted to keep it playing at its best, and it's undergone a careful neck reset and bridge re-glue to ensure stability and tone. It’s had some loving repairs, including a few back and top crack fixes reinforced with cleats, and a small hole patched on the treble-side upper bout. A maple cap has been added to the original bridge plate for extra support, while a new nut and saddle, as well as replacement tuners, keep it reliable and easy to play. For added versatility, a K&K Mini pickup with a maple baseplate has been installed, and a strap button has been added to the heel for comfortable playing on stage. While it carries the character of its age, this L-0 offers that authentic pre-war Gibson vibe with fantastic playability. Comes with a non-original hardshell case.
