Description

The king of archtops, the L-5 has been used on countless gigs and recording sessions, known for its carved spruce top, 17" comfy shape and crisp and clear sounding ebony board. This L-5CES is in great shape and a perfect playing jazzbox that is ready for another 50 years out and about!

This example has had a refret, crack repair by the output jack, replaced nut, pickguard and bridge. The original patent sticker T-Tops are present and comes with a highly desirable Lifton '50s case with covering that has shrunk slightly. Please refer to the provided photos for more detail on the condition. As with all of our vintage listings, included is a vintage spec sheet which details and repairs & changes of note.
