*Minty* This beautiful Gibson L-1 Robert Johnson from 2006 was purchased by me from a collection and is essentially unplayed. This rare specimen is constructed with a Sitka Spruce top and Mahogany back and sides. The neck is also Mahogany with a modified "V" profile and a TUSQ nut. It has a Rosewood fingerboard with period correct dot inlays, and a traditional bridge with bone saddle. Traditional white tuners with a 15:1 ratio keep this gorgeous instrument in tune.

From Gibson:
The Robert Johnson L-1 has with the same haunting, timeless sound of the original 1926 L-1 played by the man whose legacy and contributions to the blues are unmatched. Though he died tragically at the age of 27, Johnson’s historic recordings have inspired artists in genres beyond the blues. The Robert Johnson L-1 guitar is tribute to his instrument of choice. With a rich, bold tone and surprising volume for a parlor guitar, the Robert Johnson L-1 meets the needs of today's fingerpickers, folk and blues players. Available for a limited time.

There are ZERO scratches, dings, or marks of any sort. There is some very light, age-appropriate checking on the headstock near the logo and some lifting of the finish near the top of the bridge (see photos).
