1922 Gibson L-3 "Snakeead"

A rare, early 1920's, Lloyd Loar era archtop guitar, this beautiful L-3 model was professionally restored and refinished years ago, and had a few side cracks repaired. The carved spruce top, maple back and sides, soft "V" Shaped neck, and comfortable 13" sized body make this a fantastic playing guitar with a distinct, dry tone with tons of projection. This instrument lends itself perfectly to jazz as well as fingerstyle blues styles. A remarkable playing guitar and a true piece of Gibson history.
