DRC Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Saw a duo on ACL the other night and like the sound of this Gibson he was playing. What model is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblue212 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Looks like an L-50 to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimt Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 I would say a 50s L4 with a pickup added... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksdaddy Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 I'm going with L-4 because of the inlays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon S. Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I would say a 50s L4 with a pickup added... I'm pretty sure that's exactly what it is. He used it at the Ryman a couple of years back, and it sounded killer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celticrogues Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 That's John Paul White and the duo was called "The Civil Wars". They were awesome... Now sadly estranged. Highly recommend their music though. -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRC Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 Yeah, loved the sound of that guitar and now keeping my eyes open for an L4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celticrogues Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 To add to this - the guitar in question is a 1953 L4. John Paul talks briefly about it at 2:55 into this video: -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
