1978 Gibson LC-5 Maple/Spruce
The Gibson L-5 model needs little introduction; players such as Wes Montgomery, Scotty Moore and Tuck and Patti have made the sound of an L-5 legendary. This beautiful example is an L5-C or Custom L-5 from 1978 and is in wonderful condition. It is completely original but for the pickguard and nut and has a recent refret done to perfection. So not only is this one look stunning, it plays exquisitely up the entire neck.

Add to CompareBrand New C.F. Holcomb Kodiak, “The Tree” Mahogany
Our first resonator from C.F. Holcomb takes center stage (and our hearts) from the very first lick to the final ringing chord. There’s so much going on with this cut-above-the-reso, where to begin? How about Christopher’s novel use of “The Tree” Mahogany for a resonator body? We’ve seen Koa sets not a quarter as gorgeous, and somewhere Holcomb uncovered a slice of Cocobolo big enough for a one-piece neck—a standing ovation for his taste in woods.
Add to that a spider cone bridge with bone saddles, Lollar P90 (oh, yes indeed), Gotoh tuners, and a gorgeous headstock plate bearing Holcomb’s John Hancock. But let’s talk tone. This Holcomb Kodiak boasts a voice that is, truly, greater than the sum of its parts (and what fine parts they are): rich and colorful reso tone with the spider bridge, a fiery brand of warmth to light up the bass, and whip-crack trebles that soar when you give the Lollar some juice. National, eat your heart out. Please note, this Holcomb comes with a weeks’ supply of paper towels to catch any accidental tears of joy (also works for excess saliva).

Tyler Wells continues to impress! This is the latest model we’ve had the pleasure of offering here at the shop, and we’re frankly on the fence about selling it at all–we just want this one for ourselves. The LHT Fifth is a thin hollowbody with offset F holes/integrated soundports, finished with a hot-under-the-collar black and red sunburst, and simply wired with a Righteous Sounds humbucker. It’s the little details that set this LHT apart from the rest, like the bridge carve with added mass on the bass side, the flawless fit and finish, and most importantly volume and tone knobs that go to eleven. Figured Maple back and sides against a Sitka Spruce top; Mahogany neck plus 24 fret Ebony fingerboard; and a little over five pounds soaking wet.
