This 1946 Gibson L-7 is so gorgeous that it speaks for itself, but we can't help but point out a few features of this vintage treasure! It's entirely original with a Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard, and even comes with the original tweed hard shell case. The back is stunning figured maple, and this guitar has that lovely vintage L-7 sound that you just can't find in a recent guitar. 

It's in Very Good vintage condition, with cosmetic wear that's typical for an instrument its age. There are a few scratches, dings, finish cracks, and a healthy amount of checking that just contributes to the patina. 

Freshly inspected and set up in-house by our esteemed Guitar Tech.

NOTE TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS:

We want you to be happy with your purchase and we try to represent the condition of all used and vintage guitars as accurately as possible in our listings. Every used guitar shows some signs of play wear and vintage models even more so. We call out all areas of damage or unusual wear, and describe the overall condition based upon what is "normal" for the age of the instrument. Expect to see minor dings, finish checking, or other evidence of normal use and aging which may not be captured by photography or explicitly mentioned in the listing.  

We recognize that everyone has their own personal standard of what constitutes acceptable wear and tear. If play wear is especially critical for you, please contact us to ask any questions you may have. Your satisfaction is of paramount importance to us.
