BluesKing777 Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Wonder why Gibson has forgotten to make a 'Custom Shop Historic L-00' or a 'Faded Series L-00'? And if they read this, make the model like a early 30s neck and 1 3.4" nut, please! 😁 BluesKing777. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egoidealmusic Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 yup, would love to see a faded L-00. Don't need it, but would be very tempted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAMELEYE Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Me too! There, that's three. How about it, Gibson? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombywoof Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 (edited) Gibson has, of course, issued Custom Shop runs of the L-00 such as the '32 L-00 Vintage. If I recall these came with a price tag of around $5500. If my memory is correct (which is not always the case) that is more than I paid for my original 1932 L fret L1 which at the time I would have told you I must have been on puppy chow to lay out what I did. But there are a few others here who know a lot more than I do about the various CS shop L00 runs so hopefully they will chime in. As to a faded finish version, I figure you will see that when Bozeman wants to come out with an L00 Standard which carries a cheaper price tag.

BluesKing777 Posted February 17, 2023 Author Share Posted February 17, 2023 (edited) Cheap and cheerful or maximum price, the L-00 doesn’t get included in Gibson plans, other than re-named Blues Kings....which I already have! Since 2007 or so. Really, I am interested in the Custom Historic Series getting the L-00, I mean the 30s models are pretty famous. It is probably good they don’t make one, because I already have a music room full of L-00 shaped objects of different makes! BUT, how hard is it to put a Historic model L-00 up.....better wood, more attention to old detail, torrefied adi top, what? And no I don’t want a Made To Measure before everyone says it.
