Description
A now discontinued model that was only made for a brief period in the early to mid '00s. This small body acoustic is based on the advanced L-00 style & features absolutely stunning quilted & flame maple! The back & sides are nothing short of gorgeous, showing off brilliant, almost 3-D effect quilted maple! The back of the neck sports lots of beautiful flame figuring to compliment the back of the body. All in all, this is one magnificent looking guitar! Despite its smaller body size, the guitar offers a rich, robust tone that is well-defined & projects nicely in any setting. And thanks to the Fishman preamp, it's stage-ready at a moment's notice.
