Lovies Guitars is Excited to offer up this Vintage 1972 Gibson Custom L-5 CES Electric Archtop Hollowbody Guitar with a Honey Burst Finish! One of Gibson's classiest full-body electric guitars, the L-5 CES (Cutaway Electric Spanish) was a company mainstay for many years, and a particular favorite of many jazz and classic R&B players. This example is from the early 1972, with the cutaway and two patent number humbucking pickups typical of that period. This guitar still has the feel of a top-quality instrument from an earlier era. The back is laminated maple but the top is still carved spruce, while the neck is a 5-piece maple laminate with a pearl block inlaid ebony fingerboard. This is a truly amazing guitar to play and hear, with the warm, rich, yet lively sound characteristic of these fully carved-top Gibson electrics! Very Good Shape with hardware tarnish and fade, a fair bit of buckle wear, many indents and marks all over, some case wear and holes by the knobs that were filled, 8.5/10. ALL Original, except for the bridge. NO Breaks, Cracks or Repairs! Includes an Original Hard Shell Case and a Free Sample of Fret-Not, our favorite fretboard cleaner out there, check it out at fretnot.net! SEE more pics, including internals, at our website!
