L-1 20th Anniversary Acoustic Guitar

The Gibson L-1 20th Anniversary Acoustic Guitar takes a stroll down memory lane, implementing time-honored craftsmanship that made Gibson a household name. The guitar is built on a small-body platform for a timeless delta blues design. It starts with an Adirondack red spruce top for powerful, loud, and punchy bass tones, a preferred topwood by many flatpicker. The Adirondack spruce top maintains structural integrity thanks to its high strength-to-weight ratio. The tone is loud and powerful with a focused, punchy bass. The back and sides are solid mahogany, and the set-in neck offers little neck movement, promoting sustain throughout the instrument. The Madagascar rosewood fingerboard and bridge offers a rustic red-orange essence. The heaviness and stiffness of the wood further adds to the instrument's overall sustain. The hide glue provides exceptional bond, ensuring the instrument can last for decades, through thick and thin. Tonally, the hide glue adds stronger low mids, and brilliant trebles”ideal tones for fingerpicking. The custom-made vintage-style tuning machines offer precision tuning in a timeless design, and the lacquer finish completes the antique look.
