Description
A wonderful guitar this Gibson L-00 from 1940 – it’s a ultra light weight guitar with an explosive sound. It has the rare only black finish!
The sound of this Gibson is simply stunning. One of the best small body vintage guitars we had. Here you get the ultimate vintage blues sound. Today’s guitars really can’t compete with this one!!!
The top is made of spruce, the back and the sides are made of mahogany – the guitar is light as a feather!
I repeat, this L-00 sounds really very, very, very good. It has matured and is perfectly balanced, with present mids, crystal clear highs and booming basses (amazing what comes out of this small body).
The small body also gives the sound a great projection – the sound comes directly and without detours.
The guitar is in a very good and original condition for its age. It has one old and small repair at the lower side.
The playability is very good. The neck is straight (it had a neck reset) and the frets are in a good condition.
It comes with a newer Gibson case.
