{"product_id":"gibson-l-00-standard-2019-vintage-sunburst-lefty","title":"Gibson L-00 Standard with HiFi DNA, Left-Handed, Vintage Sunburst","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA small-body acoustic with the full Gibson sound\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroduced in 1932, the L-00 quickly defined the sound of Depression-era blues music. Ideal for folk and fingerpicking, the L-00 Standard beautifully captures the heritage of those exemplary early instruments, now with the Gibson-exclusive, custom-voiced Baggs™ HiFi DNA™ pickup system for amplified sound that preserves the guitar’s individual character along with every nuance of the player’s touch. Boasting exceptional balance, the L-00 has impressive projection not commonly found in comparable small-body guitars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEarly adopters included Delta blues players such as Robert Johnson, while nearly a century later, the model has found a home with contemporary performers including Olivia Rodrigo. Its compact, parlor-sized body is smaller and more comfortable than a dreadnought-sized acoustic such as the J-45™, with a narrower waist providing a focused, nuanced voice with a leaner, tighter bass response that sits naturally in a mix. This responsive design is especially well suited to fingerstyle playing and blues, while remaining versatile enough for other genres and playing styles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe L-00 Standard pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides. Traditional scalloped X-bracing supports the top and contributes to its balanced tone and excellent dynamic range. On the outside, single-ply binding outlines both the top and back, complementing the hand-sprayed Vintage Sunburst nitrocellulose lacquer finish and giving the guitar the instantly recognizable appearance of a classic Gibson acoustic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mahogany neck has a comfortable, fast-playing SlimTaper™ profile and is fitted with a rosewood fretboard with a 12-inch radius, 19 standard frets, and mother-of-pearl dot inlays. The closed-slot rectangular rosewood bridge is equipped with a TUSQ® saddle and bridge pins, with Grover® Mini Rotomatic® tuners delivering smooth operation and solid tuning stability. The traditional L-00 pickguard completes the iconic presentation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside, the L-00 Standard is now equipped with the all-new Gibson-exclusive Baggs™ HiFi DNA™ pickup system. This active system uses two lightweight sensors mounted on the internal bridge plate. The sensors are matched with optimized individual preamps to deliver full-bodied, amplified acoustic tone that lets the guitar’s character and personality come through when amplified, with no impact on the unamplified tone. The Baggs HiFi DNA system offers comparable gain-before-feedback to an under-saddle pickup. The system also includes soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls that are quick and easy to access while playing, and all but invisible to your audience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompact, comfortable, and responsive, the L-00 Standard carries forward the character that has made Gibson’s best-known small-body acoustic a lasting favorite. It comes ready for the stage and studio in a hardshell case.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45597636395187,"sku":"MCSBL0HFVSL","price":2949.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0659\/3966\/9171\/files\/MCSBL0HFVSL_1_Body.png?v=1785950534","url":"https:\/\/www.gibson.com\/en-gb\/products\/gibson-l-00-standard-2019-vintage-sunburst-lefty","provider":"Gibson","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
