A small-bodied acoustic with a big, full sound

Gibson was a pioneer in the development of small body guitars at the beginning of the 1900s with its L-Series small body acoustic guitars. The Gibson L-00 was developed in the early 1930s and has been an industry standard small-bodied guitar for decades. These smaller Gibsons deliver a tonality that is best described in Gibson’s 1934 catalog as a sound of “perfect balance.” The smaller-bodied L-Series guitars, often referred to as parlor guitars since they were frequently played in living/sitting rooms or “parlors” of homes, have remained popular ever since.

Finally! An authentic, exceptional playing and sounding parlor acoustic at an accessible price. Developed from the ground up by Team Epiphone in partnership with Gibson Acoustic, the L-00 Standard beautifully captures the heritage of those exemplary early Gibson models. The Epiphone L-00 Standard is crafted from all-solid tonewoods, so the sound of this guitar will continue to improve as it ages. The back and sides of the body are made from solid mahogany, which is paired with a solid spruce top, delivering a beautifully balanced tone that is great for strumming and fingerstyle playing, and will be especially appealing for country, folk, blues, Americana, and other genres. The neck is one-piece mahogany and has a comfortable, Rounded C profile. It attaches to the body with a glued-in, tapered dovetail joint. The fretboard is equipped with 19 standard frets and features understated mother-of-pearl dot inlays. The L-00 Standard has the popular 60s Kalamazoo-shaped headstock, which is fitted with a bone nut and high-quality Grover® Mini Rotomatic® tuners for solid, stable tuning. The rectangular rosewood bridge is outfitted with a bone saddle and ivory plastic bridge pins.

The L-00 Standard comes with Fishman electronics, including an S-Core under-saddle pickup and Fishman Presys VT preamp with soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls that are quick and easy for the player to access while remaining all but invisible to the audience. The L-00 Standard comes with an Epiphone premium gig bag for protection and easy grab-and-go transport.
