Taylor Player Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Really sweet and I love the cut away. I bet it is a L-4 and the C denotes it is a cut away. There is a 1950 L4 on my local Craigslist and the same guy is also selling a 1957 L-48. I have been drooling over both.... Gibson L4 Gibson L48 I would be proud to own either. I assume since they are L series and acoustic not acoustic/electric, that they are solid wood, but I could be wrong on that. I am still gassing for the guy with the 1956 Gibson ES-135 found here: Gibson ES-135 My local Craigslist is not helping my GAS attacks at all lately! But I do love looking at the old Gibsons!

rscott4079 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 The seller used to go by the name Flip-it-fast. I've noticed he's been selling off his inventory at a frantic rate. I'm thinking that he's been hit by the bad economy. He's accepted some offers for as much as a 30% off his asking price. If you really wanted this guitar, you could make a good offer and he'd probably accept. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jannusguy Posted March 26, 2009 Author Share Posted March 26, 2009 that's the thing. i have no sense of what it sounds like. i bought my cf100e based on appearance (like a dope) and regretted it. i just don't have a feel for the tone of these things.

Point taken. I can't speak for this guitar model in particular, but I've found that in the world of acoustic guitars, you're either an archtop guy, or you aren't. They have a sound all their own, and you either love it, or you don't. That's especially true of the non-electric variety (which this is). I love em. This one will probably be loud and have a softly metallic tone to it. Ragtimey, jazzy. I would cruise Youtube and see what you could find to compare. Did you sell your CF100E?

ballcorner Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Sorry - I can't help - never played one. This is a calendar guitar for me - might be a November, maybe a March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
