Description

Made as an homage to the original Gibson Archtops, this carved top and back L-5S features multi-ply binding with an ebony board and the vintage style flower pot inlay on the headstock. This example is in good condition with just a replaced nut to note. It has general wear and patina for an instrument of this age with light a light stand reaction on the bass side of the headstock. It plays great and sounds stellar with its original Tarback Gibson pickups.

Includes its original hard shell 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.
