------------------------------
Born in 1902 as a 12.5-inch acoustic archtop guitar, changed to 13.5-inch in 1908, production as an archtop ceased in 1925, and was subsequently succeeded by the flat top. This guitar has historical value and is Gibson's L-1, made in 1922. It is also a memorable era in which Lloyd Loar produced the F-5, and the following year the L-5, producing masterpieces that are still well-known even today. It is well known that the flat-top L-1 was used by the famous Robert Johnson, but the arch-top L-1 is also very attractive and has a lot of charm. The fact that a guitar from about 100 years ago still exists in such "playable condition" is deeply moving. Spruce top, birch sides and back, 13F joint mahogany extra-thick V-shaped neck, non-truss rod, ebony fingerboard, pearl dot fingerboard inlay, ivoroid binding on top and fingerboard, ebony adjustable bridge with Pat number engraved, original tailpiece, original pegs. The neck has a very thick triangle neck with a light overspray that maintains the natural texture. The pickguard was replaced with a replacement item. Although it is a non-truss rod neck, the neck is straight and in excellent condition. The pegs also work very well. It is in very good condition for a guitar that is over 100 years old. The tone is an early American sound that doesn't betray its looks at all. Enjoy a soft yet dry and nostalgic sound. Comes with original hard case.
