The 1932 Gibson L-00 is a small-bodied acoustic prized for its dry, punchy tone and vintage bluesy character. Built with a spruce top and mahogany back and sides, it delivers a focused, midrange-rich voice with impressive projection for its size. This early example features a factory shimmed ebony fingerboard—a rare transitional feature from Gibson’s early 1930s production—offering a slightly elevated fingerboard plane for improved playability. With its ebony finish, white pickguard, and light build, the 1932 L-00 is a responsive and soulful instrument that captures the essence of pre-war Gibson craftsmanship. For the full repair history, check out the Specs tab. Includes the original chipboard case.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
