Gibson Custom L-4 CES - archtop guitar w Original hardcase -
Custom Shop luthier made Nashville TN ( 1999 )
Fabulous playing & vibrantly responsive hand crafted Gibson L4 custom shop acoustic electric hollow body archtop guitar. Not gigged - for private home use & recording only ! All original luthier crafted archtop guitar w Gibson USA hardcase.
Clean, warm & well defined tones resonate throughout acoustically along w similar warm deep PAF generated tones w phenomenally creamy bass & midrange tones and awesome rich textured highs over the entire fingerboard range. Each pickup delivers a wide yet focused tonal pallete w far more options than most might expect from a wide bodied archtop guitar.. Luxurious & versatile blues, jazz & rock sounds can be effortlessly created from the CES custom quality construction w full 3.5" solid maple crafted body & vibrant resonant spruce top.. the even slinky responsiveness & playability of this Gibson L-4 CES archtop electric guitar across the entire fingerboard range will consistently exceed all expectations.
I have owned & loved this instrument for 18 yrs.. it simply loves my Fender Deluxe amp + AC30 Vox pedal. Selling due only to a negotiated family settlement.
