Cincy2 Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Long time guitar player here. Classical, acoustic and jazz. When I started taking lessons Freshman year in High School (54 years ago!), my teacher had a blond L5 CES Gibson. I've always had in my mind that somewhere in my stable I would have to pick up one of these. I finally pulled the trigger today and have a blonde 2002 L5CES on the way. It appears to be in great condition. I expect I will have multiple questions. Looking forward to bonding with you guys. Gibson is an American icon. I'm hoping that their business rebounds. The rest of my guitars: 2015 Greenfield G1 - Spruce / Brazilian Rosewood Comins Orchestra Spruce / Maple 16 inch Archtop and now - 2002 Gibson L5 CES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retired Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Welcome to the forum Cincy. Wow...What a very nice Gibson to have. After paying that much, I don't know if I'd play it a lot or just look at it? Enjoy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
