{"product_id":"05-2800005516821","title":"[SN 39641] USED Gibson \/ L-3, 1917 [05]","description":"An archtop guitar made over a century ago!!\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nBased on its serial number, this is believed to have been manufactured in 1917, making it an extremely rare instrument.\u003cbr\u003e \nIt features an original trapeze tailpiece with pins, and the bridge and pickguard are also in their original condition. The body measures 13 1\/2 inches wide, with a thick spruce top and maple sides and back. The neck is made of very thick mahogany and features a V-shaped profile with a nut width of approximately 47mm.The fingerboard is ebony, and the frets are narrow vintage-style. It has a short scale length of approximately 618 mm, and the headstock features a floral Avalon inlay. The soundhole is adorned with a beautiful herringbone rosette. The celluloid pickguard, mounting bar, and tailpiece are all still in place—extremely rare parts. The pickguard, pickguard fasteners, and tailpiece each bear a “PATENTED” number.The ebony bridge is also original. The tuners have been replaced with a later three-in-line set, allowing for standard tuning; however, the first-string peg is slightly tilted. This does not affect playability. While there are signs of age and some scratches overall, there are no major repair marks or top damage, and the neck is in good condition. The white label and serial number inside the soundhole are also present. Above all, the fact that this is a guitar from over a century ago is not to be missed!!\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nCondition Grade: B+: Some scratches, but no issues for normal use\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nCountry of Manufacture: United States\u003cbr\u003e \nYear of Manufacture: 1917\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nSerial Number: 39641\u003cbr\u003e \nCase: Hard case (handle damaged)\u003cbr\u003e \nFret Wear: 60%\u003cbr\u003e \nNeck Condition: Good\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \n* As this is a used item, there may be scratches, dents, or other imperfections that are not clearly visible in the photos or not listed here.
