rjake99 Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Hello, I was recently given a 1934 L7 from my grandmother. I checked out the serial number because I noticed that it had two more tuning pegs and posts than the normal six and I have not been able to find another model that has this. Is this something rare or just something someone added to it at some point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twang Gang Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Believe this is what a 1934 L-7 should look like and only have six strings and six tuning posts. Not sure what you might have or how it may have been modified. Some pictures would really help.

He did after all, fashion a 9-string guitar from an old six string. And several makers now do make 7 and 8 sting axes, But what's up with the '37 of yours I couldn't say.
