Gibson / L-5 / 1994 / Sunburst / Guitar
|
This is something you really do not come across every day… This is an VERY NICE Gibson L-5 Wes Montgomery model built and signed inside by Jim Hutchins in Jan 1994 which includes the original, large 90’s brown Gibson case.
It is a bit of a bargain because rhe are 2x approc 10cm top cracks either side of the tailpiece, these have not been repaired and do not look as if they are causing any undue stress and they look as if they have been there a long time so it would be up to the new owner whether to leave them or get them repaired.
It does sound and play briliantly well. Original frets have recently had a polish and are in great condition as I am pretty certain the only strings to be on this guitar have been flat wounds. Aside from the two cracks mentioned, it has a few minor dings in places, there is some pitting on the gold plated parts especially the tuners and there is a small wear spot on the back of the neck. Please have a look at the many pictures.
Thrse have a suggested selling price in the UK of £8,500 so at £2,995 or best offer I think it will be a very good deal for someone who wants and L-5 but cannot stratce to the higher prices.
