I’m starting to think that the faded A is likely. I’ll have magnify the label and have another look. Thank you for the reply.

Thank you for your response. It looks like these have been replaced at some point over the years and probably not original.

Thank you for your reply. The missing A is what has confused my research. If it’s faded it’s well faded along the the hyphen. There is nothing stamped at the back of the headstock.

Hello. I have inherited my fathers Gibson arch top and was curious on the age of this guitar. It’s an L7 numbered 5266 on an oval label. It’s not in the greatest shape but plays well and has sentimental value to me. I would be grateful for any help as I’ve exhausted my internet search with no firm answers.
