Description

Black as night and sweet as sin. This 1991 Gibson Master Model L-4CES is a tall, dark drink of water with a wide range of tones under the hood. Warm neck position down to a quacky bridge position with strong motown vibes; it does it all, and so well at that. Mahogany body with Mahogany top, three-way toggle, twin humbuckers, and gold hardware throughout. Parallelogram position markers, 1 1/16" nut width, tortoise-style pickguard.

Gibson L-4 is an iconic guitar well known to archtop lovers around the world. This one from 1991 plays like a dream.
 
Packs a solid acoustic punch, thanks to opening up since 1991, and I love the warm fluid response from the humbuckers when amplified.
