    Hi all

    I am interested in an 'Orville by Gibson' L-1 guitar (circa 1992), which I have seen on-line. It isn't referred to as 'a Robert Johnson' signature model. Just a plain L-1.

    Does anyone know if this guitar is a solid wood guitar - or is it laminate? 

    Thanks, Steven

     

     

     

    The top might be solid, but the back and sides are probably not.

    If you set up a feed on reverb and watch for a good buy to come up.  From time to time I've seen them for less than $4k on there in the last few months.

    I agree.

    I'm considering buying a SJ-200.....how much more difficult is it to play than a dread?  I usually sit on the edge of a couch to play....and mostly fingerpick and soft strumming....does your right arm get tired because of the size...should this be a factor in choosing?  I do not amp up....just acoustic

    In my opinion there shouldn't be any problem for you to play a super jumbo size acoustic. I can play any size acoustic easy.

    I was surprised to learn that you could still order a Custom guitar from Bozeman.

    There are limitations based on available patterns and toolings with the current backlog and pending expansion.

    No delivery given except as soon as possible.

    Worked with the great people at Bailey Brothers Music.

    On order - L00/Aged top/RW b&s/12 fret/slim taper neck

     

    What designs do they accept?

    Hi All,

    Looking at Gibson's website, it says this model is titled the Gibson Songwriter Standard. However I see the Songwriter Studio and Songwriter Deluxe in the used market and on youtube, etc...

    What is the difference between the past studio, deluxe, and now standard versions?

    Is one of these past iterations of the model basically the current Songwriter Standard? Just trying to figure out its history here. Thanks in advance if you have any info...

    The current standard look the same as the studio looked back in 2009 to 2012 so I believe the former studio is now what they call standard.  The former deluxe was more highly decorated than the former studio, now standard is. I wish the old deluxe would come back.
