Gibson L-5 Sunburst 1976

Up for sale is a beautiful 1976 Gibson L-5, one of Gibson’s most iconic and prestigious archtop guitars. Built during an era when Gibson was still producing exceptional handcrafted jazz instruments in Kalamazoo, this L-5 delivers the timeless tone, elegance, and craftsmanship that has made the model a favorite among professional players for decades. The pickguard started to deteriorate (as is common for this era) so we replaced it.
