Gibson's premier archtop, and the first guitar to feature f-holes. The L-5 was a success during the big-band era, but found prominence in the hands of jazz, blues, country, and rock players equally. This model features replacement pickup covers, replacement bridge wheels, a replacement pickguard, and a repaired top crack. The golden finish has aged beautifully, and it plays well and sounds fantastic. Includes a vintage hardshell case (which is missing one latch).
