Description

This super-cool, great sounding 1956 Gibson L-4C is a great choice for a player looking for a vintage acoustic archtop. Overall condition is what we'd call "vintage excellent" -- it's got signs of honest playwear, but presents wonderfully and is free from major cosmetic blemishes or structural compromises. The pickguard has been replaced, and the guitar has been refretted with EVO wire. All work by noted luthier Laurent Brondel. Excellent sound and playability! Priced with vintage hard case.

 

Specs
  • Carved Spruce top
  • 1 11/16" nut width
  • Refretted, with setup and new pickguard by Laurent Brondel
