Gibson L0 L00 1933

Small sun burst early L-00 or perhaps L-0 because of the back binding, pre firestripe pickguard and the higher style stained shaded top which came prior to colored lacquer ....this IS one of my holy grail guitars, what I always try to find for myself and you players out there. Perhaps it's because these early examples have the most precise radius to the extra thin seemingly seamless red spruce tops and solid non notched kerfing or it's the scalloped braces or just how damn light they are built! But these always sound the very best. This example HAS that fine voice! Lively to play and a dream to hear. Slightly under 1 11/16" at the nut with a comfy soft oval V neck, not the typical later chunky deep V. All original crazed finish with no flaking or over spray and crack free sans a few well repaired backside hairlines and the ones often seen between the fretboard extension and the sound hole. First 12 frets replaced and all divots tastefully filled on the original Brazilian rosewood fretboard. Original tuners and buttons bridge and the bridge plate is un-molested. All restoration impeccably performed by David Hatchard including a neck set and professional set up with action at 3-2 and proper string break across the new bone saddle and new ebony nut. This one has been out of circulation for many many years, never seen on the net and well dried and well played in the past....this babe has it all! This is a guitar for the serious accomplished player or professional musician who knows and understands the difference between the prettiest girl at the dance and the best dancer.... TKL Hard case. Special thanks to Bob Halperin of Portsmouth New Hampshire for fine Vintage Licks!
