NOTE:
The original sticker in the body of this guitar reads L4-C, yet this is definitely not an L4-C. After consulting with previous owners and well trusted Gibson archtop brainiacs, we narrow this down to a possible factory error. There’s just no Gibson L4-C’s with these specs. Same with the serial number, based off Gibson’s standard serial number practices, it definitely reads a bit funky. Please don’t hesitate to ask with any questions!
