Gibson Modern L-00 Special - satin ebony

First Introduced in 1932, the L-00 has remained the most well-known and popular small-body acoustic model in Gibson’s illustrious history. Gibson was a pioneer in the development of small body guitars in the beginning of the 1900s with its "L-Series Small Body" acoustics. These smaller Gibsons deliver a tonality that is best described in Gibson's 1934 catalog as a sound of "perfect balance."

With the GIBSON Modern Collection L-00 Special (MCSBL0SPCEB) acoustic/electric guitar, contemporary musicians can own a professional L-00 acoustic for songwriting, rehearsing, cross-town gigging, and home-recording.
It is of course an all solid wood construction (Sitka Spruce top, Mahogany back/sides/neck, Rosewood fretboard), a comfortable neck profile and 19 medium-jumbo frets.
The LR Baggs Element Bronze pickup makes this Workhorse stage-ready too.

Sipo Mahogany (aka “Sipo” or “Utile”) is an African wood that is a close genetic relative to Sapele. Sipo is one of the most promising Mahogany substitutes for use as a neck wood and for electric blanks. It is already in common use by one of the larger high-end guitar makers.
