Gibson full acoustic top model L-5 CES Natural Master Model 1990 Good condition.

The master model (THE GIBSON MASTER MODEL) was installed as a label to indicate the top model such as L-5 and Style 5 mandolins from 1922 to 1930, and Gibson reprinted the style in 1990. .

Many lineups of the L series were released from the early 1900s, with the L-5 being released around 19221, and the ES model being released in the 1950s. The L-5 CES is still overwhelmingly popular as the top model.

This guitar is the top model L-5CES of the master model manufactured in 1990 at the Nashville workshop. There are two labels that say THE GIBSON MASTER MODEL, which are proof of the top model that can be seen from the f-hole.

Solid curved spruce top, curved maple back, maple sides, maple neck, ebony fingerboard, block inlays, flower pot inlay on the head, multi-binding tortoiseshell pickguard, ebony base with inlay work & ABR-1 bridge, Examples include the original tailpiece with L5” motif inlay. Among them, the wood material is particularly noteworthy, but unlike the sunburst, which can be easily fooled by its color, the natural color one is made of carefully selected materials, and is nicknamed blond, making it unique. First of all, the top of the body is made of the highest quality spruce with beautiful symmetry, the back and sides of the body are made of the finest maple material with a strong 3D figured frame that stands out completely, and the vertical lines of the wood grain are also beautiful. It is made of strong figured flame maple, 2-line laminate 5P specification that increases neck strength, and a matching finish. The ebony fingerboard is also carefully selected and is made of the finest material with a glossy heathered grain. The combination of these finest materials and gold hardware gives it an extremely luxurious look, making it a top-of-the-line model.

And after all, I can't hide my surprise at this sound. The theory that a well-played guitar = good sound is a lie, as it plays such a superb withered jazz tone. The amazing body sound that you will be surprised by even just the raw sound, and the clear sound of the neck that can be heard in your left hand make you feel a big difference from current products. In addition, the installed original engraved numbered PAF outputs a delicious tone that is exactly like the classic Gibson jazz sound. A powerful low-mid with sweet overtones and feedback, and a tone with a high response and edge even though it's a full acoustic guitar. And the glossy, glittering withered tone is the best sound unique to the top-of-the-line L-5CES model that will make you forget time. Due to its age, it is mixed with the 57 Classic even though it was made in the same year, but it is a superb piece that makes you feel that the sound is so different just by the difference in pickup.

This is a gem that has been used very carefully, and there are some discoloration and weather checks on the gold parts due to age, chipping of the paint on the first string side of the neck binding, and light scratches due to use, but nothing noticeable. , it will be a very beautiful gem overall.

The neck condition is excellent, and the low string height makes it very easy to play. The rest of the frets are about 70% to 80% reduced, and there is no problem with the truss rod.

Although it is a valuable guitar and is aimed at collectors, it is a ready-to-use guitar that can be used at live performances. Please consider this opportunity.
