First introduced in 1932, the L-00 has remained the most well-known and popular  small-body acoustic model in Gibson’s illustrious history. The new L-00 Special is crafted by  Gibson’s expert acoustic luthiers in Bozeman, Montana, and offers players a USA-built  Gibson acoustic guitar at a very accessible price. The L-00 Special is constructed using  genuine, solid mahogany for the back and sides and has a solid Sitka spruce top with our  traditional scalloped X-bracing for a balanced tone with excellent dynamic range for a  small-bodied acoustic. Both the top and back feature single-ply binding around the  perimeter. The narrower waist of an L-00 body shape provides a focused and nuanced  sound, naturally giving it a leaner and tighter bass response that sits perfectly in the mix.  The tone is ideal for fingerstyle playing and blues and works very well for other genres and  playing styles, too. The utile neck is attached to the body with a compound dovetail  neck-to-body joint, and like all Gibson acoustic guitars, it is affixed with hot hide glue. The  neck has a comfortable and fast-playing SlimTaper™ profile, and the rosewood fretboard  has a 12” radius and is adorned with simple mother-of-pearl dot inlays and is fitted with 19  standard frets. The closed slot rectangular rosewood bridge is equipped with a TUSQ®  saddle, and the nut and bridge pins are also TUSQ. Smooth turning Grover® Mini  Rotomatic® tuners ensure solid tuning stability. The L-00 Special is finished in satin  nitrocellulose lacquer in your choice of Satin Ebony, Satin Natural or Satin Honey Burst. It  comes equipped with an L.R. Baggs™ Element Bronze active under-saddle piezo pickup  and active preamp with an easy-to-access soundhole-mounted volume control, so it’s stage  and studio-ready from the moment you take it out of the included premium soft shell case.
