The Story

L7-C Sunburst 1952

This is a vintage 1952 Gibson L7-C acoustic archtop model which has been turned electric via a vintage DeArmond pickup. The guitar is built with a spruce top and maple body, as well as rosewood fretboard with double parallelogram inlays. The guitar has been refretted, with a neck reset, and the lead within the pickup being replaced. We like that the newer frets on the guitar are quite large and tall, making it an easy player!

Includes: Original Hardshell Case, DeArmond Pickup Cable
