1995 Gibson – L5 – Custom – ID 5263

One of the most legendary archtops of all time - the Gibson L-5.
This 1995 example comes in a noble natural finish and is second-hand, was made in 1997 in Rüdiger Helbig's folk shop in Munich in 1997 (with a 5-year guarantee) and has been in a small, exclusive private collection ever since.
Weighing only 3784 grams, it is very comfortable to play and is in very well-kept, original condition.
The L-5 is regarded as the absolute benchmark among jazz guitars: handmade with the finest tonewoods, masterly craftsmanship and a warm, characterful tone.
This guitar epitomizes the Gibson archtop classic as it has been used for decades by jazz greats such as Wes Montgomery for decades.

It is supplied with a case and leather strap.
