Description
What makes this guitar special: The Custom L-7C Acoustic Archtop is the only pure acoustic archtop ever built at Gibson’s shop in Bozeman, Montana. This beautiful instrument—made under the direction of Gibson’s master luthier Ren Ferguson—is based on Gibson’s L-7 archtop of the late 1940s, offering the easy playability of a rounded Venetian cutaway, the huge sound of a 17-inch body, and the affordability of simple ornamentation. The flame figuring in the back & sides is absolutely stunning, as is the variegation in the fingerboard. The natural finish makes it a true standout attraction. Professionally set up by our luthier, so it plays & sounds amazing!
