Lovies Guitars is excited to offer up a Vintage 1972 Gibson Custom L-5 CES in an Amazing Vintage Sunburst Finish! One of Gibson’s classiest full-body electric guitars, the L-5 CES (Cutaway Electric Spanish) was a company mainstay for many years, and a particular favorite of many jazz and classic R&B players. This example is from the early 70’s, with the cutaway and two patent number humbucking pickups typical of that period. The neck is slimmer than earlier examples but still has a more substantial feel than some Gibsons of the period. Although Gibson quality is generally thought to have slipped somewhat around this time period, the top-line carved guitars suffered the least; this guitar still has the feel of a top-quality instrument from an earlier era. The back is laminated maple but the top is still carved spruce, while the neck is a 5-piece maple laminate with a pearl block inlaid ebony fingerboard. This is a truly amazing guitar to play and hear, with the warm, rich, yet lively sound characteristic of these fully carved-top Gibson electrics! Excellent Condition, however, there are a fair amount of finish marks along the body sides and a bit of buckle rub on the back. ALL Original except for the newly fitted pickguard, NO Breaks, Cracks or Repairs, Includes Original Hard Shell Case, SEE more pics at our site!!
