This year marks 100 years since Gibson launched its first western guitars, the Gibson L-0 and L-1. To celebrate this milestone, Gibson Custom presents the L-1 Anniversary Limited Edition, a loving tribute to Gibson's historic flat-top guitars.Although the L-1 model is closely associated with musicians such as Jeff Buckley, Scrapper Blackwell, Norman Blake, Hubert Sumlin, and Keith Richards, the L-1 is perhaps most closely associated with the legendary bluesman Robert Johnson, who can be seen playing a sunburst L-1 with a 12-fret neck in one of the few authenticated photographs of him. With its small body, 12-fret neck, and characteristic tonal warmth, the L-1 is an ideal guitar for blues. Although it sounds fantastic when played with a pick, it is also an exceptional guitar for fingerstyle.
The L-1 Anniversary Limited Edition is made in the Gibson Custom Shop in Bozeman, Montana. It features the L-1's characteristic body shape, made of solid mahogany on the back and sides, with a torrefied red spruce top supported by scalloped X-bracing. The L-1 Anniversary Limited Edition has cream-colored binding on the top and back, along the fretboard, and around the headstock. Even the soundhole has cream-colored binding. The cream-colored binding provides a beautiful visual contrast to the deep, rich, and glossy Cremona Burst nitrocellulose lacquer finish on its characteristically shaped body,
The L-1 Anniversary Limited Edition is built with a mahogany neck featuring a period-correct neck/body joint at the 12th fret and a historic V-profile. It is equipped with an ebony fretboard with 19 standard frets and mother-of-pearl position dots.
The L-1 Anniversary Limited Edition has open tuning pegs with cream-colored buttons. The headstock is adorned with a vintage "The Gibson" logo in mother-of-pearl and a two-ply truss rod cover with the word "Anniversary" engraved in white.
But you'll have to be quick to get your hands on one. Only 100 L-1 Anniversary Limited Edition guitars will be built, and we are proud to present the first model in the series to our customers.
The L-1 comes with a hardshell case along with a certificate of authenticity.
