Gibson L-00 Special

Gibson L-00 Special

Since 1932, the Gibson L-00 has been the small-body acoustic that players keep coming back to, and the new L-00 Special brings that same beloved character to the table with an added bonus — it’s built by Gibson’s expert luthiers in Bozeman, Montana, making it a genuine USA-made Gibson at a price that’s hard to believe. Whether you’re a fingerpicker, a blues player, or just someone who wants a great-feeling acoustic that sits perfectly in any mix, the L-00 Special delivers.
