Description
This rare 1939 transitional pre-war 17” Gibson L-5, in its original sunburst finish, is a true find. It has two small holes in the neck near the fingerboard extension from a previously installed pickup, and the tailpiece has been repaired with four added screws. The guitar has been refretted and features a replaced pickguard, but is otherwise fully original, including its original brown Lifton hardshell case. Beyond its stunning appearance, this L-5 boasts an exceptionally balanced resonance and impressive volume, perfect for acoustic playing without the need for amplification. It has just undergone a complete precision setup and service, ensuring it's in top playing condition for its next owner.
