Up for sale is a 1972 Gibson L5-S, a very cool and distinctive early-'70s Gibson solidbody that delivers serious vintage character, tone, and feel. This one is 100% original and remains in clean condition overall with no overspray, no finish touch-ups, and no hidden repairs.
The guitar shows typical honest wear for its age, including normal play wear throughout and a scratch on the back of the neck, shown clearly in the photos. It has been well cared for and presents beautifully as a clean vintage example. The frets show little to no wear, and the guitar plays great up and down the neck.
This is a fantastic opportunity to own an all-original 1972 Gibson L5-S with the right look, the right feel, and plenty of vintage Gibson vibe. Clean, original, and ready to be played or added to a serious collection.

I specialize in selling pre-owned guitars, which typically show signs of regular use. My commitment to quality is unwavering, and I ensure that any guitar I offer for sale is free from problems, unless explicitly mentioned. With a history of selling guitars dating back to the 1980s, I pride myself on selecting only the finest instruments.
It's important to understand that our shipping fees encompass more than just the cost of the box. I guarantee professional packaging using UPS-approved materials to safeguard your purchase. This typically includes new, heavy-duty boxes rated at 275lbs, 3-inch wide brown fiberglass reinforced tape, ensuring the guitar is well-protected. Additionally, every guitar shipped is fully insured for its sale price.
The guitars are set up according to my personal preferences (Medium Height), and I strictly avoid guitars with neck issues. However, guitar setup is highly subjective, and it is advisable to have it adjusted by a trusted local technician who understands your specific playstyle and preferences.
