Gibson L1
I had it restored By an excellent Luthier ( Otto D'Ambrosio look him up) who specializes in archtops.
The top is spruce carved out. This guitar is over a hundred years old and is a great player! the neck is straight and the action is low the original binding (celliouse) had dried out. I had it replaced with Birds eye maple. looks beautiful and won't shrink or decay. all crack have been fixed and cleated. I have it in a Gretsch guitar case and will pad it to prevent any issues for shipping.
feel free to ask questions.
