This is a beautiful Gibson L-5 CES Custom Sunburst finish made in 1997 and in excellent condition.
The L5 has defined the essence of the archtops since Lloyd Loars very first Master Model over 80 years ago and needs no introduction.

A cared-for and well-set-up example, that is a credit to its previous owner. Solis Spruce top and the most magnificent Flame Maple back and with some gorgeous figuring on its Maple sides, this is how they used to make them.

Back in Gibson's past, they were produced with care in small batches and this is one of the last. They were always a symbol of Gibson's commitment to the art of the American guitar, and that's what you see when you look at this instrument. Worth every penny.

A super rare find and guaranteed to delight its next owner in every way, absolutely stunning.
