This Heritage Eagle Classic offers a classic double humbucker fully carved archtop guitar in the classic 17-inch body style of the Gibson L-5CES. It is in dead mint condition with no wear. The spruce top is a stunning, quartsawn piece of wood with striking medullary rays. The neck, back and sides are beautifully flamed maple. The guitar is made with all solid carved wood of clearly very, very high quaility.
According to the owner of this consignment guitar, he was told by David Teske, who did the finish on these guitars that only about 7 or 8 were done in wineburst. The remainder were the usual "original sunburst" or natural.
The guitar plays beautifully and for Seth Lover lovers, it delivers all the tone one could hope for. The original case and all materials are included.
Ships free in the United States, and for very reasonable rates worldwide.
