Gibson / L5 Lloyd Loar Signed With Virzi / 1924 / Guitar

Gibson L5 Lloyd Loar Signed, Dec. 1 1924, SN 77392, met Virzi tone #10313, This is a sensational Instrument, even to our standards.  Only a hand full of these are know to exist and each of them is of great historic importance. Only a few instruments have the legendary historical status of the L5, depening on your style of playing the Fender Stratocaster/Telecaster or Gibson Les Paul, or- if you are an Flattop player the Martin D28 or D45 might surpass the legend of the L5, but it's for sure that with the making of this first ever L5 the Legend of the Archtop started. Only few pre-1925 examples are known to exist up till today, and only a few are signed, and one of the first ever Gibson L5 signed by Lloyd Loar is is therefor a sensational find. For Reference please check Darryl Wolfe's F-5 journal. This L5 is fitted with the Virzi Tone Producer, features Flamed Birch back/sides and silver plated hardware. The guitar is in exceptional condition for it's age, travels in a Calton case, but the original case comes with the guitar. Lloyd Loar created the L5 and F5 mandolin in the early 1920s, known to be the middle of the Banjo boom, the expensive L5 was sort of ignored by players untill Eddie Lang recognized the potential of the L5 archtop.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
