Gibson L-C Century of Progress Owned by Nathaniel Rateliff 1930s, Sunburst

The Century of Progress was created to commemorate the Century of Progress World's Fair held in Chicago in 1933, and remains an uncommonly seen guitar from the pre-war era, with a bold design that stands apart from more traditional instruments. Previously owned by Nathaniel Rateliff, it carries a meaningful blend of connection to a respected modern artist along with offering a compelling historical significance. It has had work to hold up to the demands of being used heavily throughout its life which can be found listed with the instruments specs, and has a crisp and articulate sound to pair with great feel offering the ability to hold up to finger picking and strumming alike.
