Gibson L-00 Sunburst, 1934

On October 21, 2023 /

This Gibson L-00 dates to 1934, with the L-00 built from 1932 to 1945 as the lowest cost L model. There have been some reissues of 1930’s models offered in the last decade. And yes, the ’00’ is two zeros. For being plain, the Gibson L-00 models are remarkably good sounding instruments with a very even representation throughout the tonal range. As with many Gibson models, the top is Spruce. The sides, back, neck, body blocks and linings are mahogany, and the bridge and unbound fingerboard are rosewood.

It’s not so common these days to see something like this pre-war Martin 00-17 Mahogany steel string, built during 1939. The moderate-sized 00 is one of Martin’s oldest body designs. It was launched in 1898, with the first 00-17 appearing in 1908 when three were built.

Gibson 1930s L00 Classic Limited Edition Ebony, 2015

On June 22, 2020 /

The Gibson 1930s L00 Classic is a reproduction of what became a very popular small body guitar introduced in 1932 and built until 1946. At that time, the Dreadnought or Jumbo design was just re-entering the market with Martin’s 1931 D-1, which became the D-18 in 1932. The 1930s L-00 Classic takes its cues from the post-1937 models; prior to that year, the back was not bound.
