This guitar was custom made by Jim Triggs, formerly of Gibson’s Custom, arch top and Mando shops, completed in Jan 2006, signed by Jim and his son Ryan.
The top is spruce with highly figured flamed maple back, rims and neck. Ebony bridge, fretboard and headstock overlay. It's an amber finish, nitro cellulose.
17 inch width. The neck is .85 inch at the first fret.
It’s in near-mint condition and comes with the original TKL case. There is very little play wear, the jumb frets are excellent. There are no dents, dings, scratches. The fit and finish are exquisite.
It has one Seymour Duncan 57 pickup in the neck position, Wes Montgomery style, with one volume and tone, gold hardware. Grover tuners.
It's built like the L5s from the 30s with the exception of the pickup, and it's X-braced.
Additional photos on request (I had difficulty loading photos). I've tried to capture the fit of the neck joint and the guitar's appointments, and will provide any photo you want.
Feel free to ask questions.
$6250, plus $200 shipping at buyers expense. I will insure it for shipping at actual cost of insurance, atbuyers expense.
I will entertain serious offers, but don't waste your time or mine with a low ball offer, I won't respond.
This guitar is being sold as is, with no warranty, express or implied. No return, with the exception of misrepresentation. If, on receipt of the guitar, you can demonstrate that it is not as described, and contact me within 24 hours of receipt, I will consider a return, at my discretion.
No return for "buyers remorse" or change of heart or mind.
There is absolutely zero damage of any kind on this instrument. Should it arrive damaged, that's a matter between buyer and shipper, but Iwill do anything I can to assist and expedite the buyer in that event.
