A 1980 L-5 CEC has arrived.

The "L-5CES" is a model that could be called the benchmark for all archtop guitars. Its flowing body lines and rich yet delicate tone are truly superb, making the "L-5" a quintessential archtop guitar.

This model features a solid spruce top, solid maple sides and back, ebony fingerboard, block inlays, torch inlays, and elegant decorations reserved only for high-end models.

As expected from a 17-inch full-body guitar, it produces a powerful tone, and the pleasant, deep acoustic resonance with a sense of aged quality is truly impressive. The sound possesses both a thick core and excellent projection, with a pleasant harmonic richness and a depth that responds to even the most subtle picking nuances, delivering a high-quality sound full of acoustic character.

While there are some scratches, paint checking, and rust on the front pickup cover due to its age, it is in good condition considering its age. The pickguard has been replaced. The neck is in excellent condition with plenty of truss rod adjustment remaining, and the frets have 70% of their life left, making it very playable. The original warranty and hard case are included.

A rare L-5 CES from the early 1980s, produced in limited numbers. Don't miss this opportunity!
