1975 Gibson L5 S – Cherry Sunburst

1974 Gibson L5S in great condition and beautiful faded Cherry Sunburst finish. The guitar is all original besides the bridge pickup has been changed to a period correct patent number version and there are two additional strap holes on the upper side. The L5S came out in 1973 and was actually a “solid-body version” of Gibson succesfull L5 Jazzguitar and features a lot of similar appointments such as the highly flamed 5-piece maple neck and body, the multi-bound 24 3/4″scale ebony fretboard, the extensively-styled L-5 headstock with famous flower-pot inlay and 6x Kluson “Sealfast” machine-heads. The L5S was by far Gibson most expensive electric guitar back then. The Gibson L5S turned out to be not very succesfull, even so many famous players could be seen with a L5S such as Pat Matino, Keith Richard, Mark Farner (Grand Funk), Ron Wood, Neil Schon (Journey) and many others. Incl. orig. Gibson hardshell case with purple lining.
