The Gibson Century Collection of acoustic guitars celebrates a solid century of Gibson mojo with fresh, interesting takes on a historic model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWay, way back in a time known as the 1930s, Gibson debuted their L-00 acoustic as part of their L Series of acoustics. The parlor-sized shape inspired countless musicians for a small-scaled acoustic to cover many musical bases. These L-00s featured a now-familiar 14-Fret neck assembly that met the fingerboard and body at the fourteenth fret. Today's Century Collection 12-Fret bends from the usual path for an inspiring, alternative take on the classic parlor-style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Gibson L-00 Century 12-Fret sets out similarly to other L-00s. First, the model's smaller, compact L Series body comes together with a match of Sitka spruce and mahogany. Breathing authentic Gibson musicality into every inch, the L-00 body punches well above its weight class for a full, authoritative voice spurred on by its iconic tonewood match. A satin nitrocellulose lacquer finish wraps this comfortably compact body with cream single-ply binding for a cool geometric accent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt this juncture, this L-00 breaks Gibson same-old, same-old with its neck. The model's mahogany neck joins the L-00 body through compound dovetail neck joint assembly with vintage-accurate hot hide glue adhesive. A SlimTaper-profiled neck meets the body at the fingerboard's twelfth fret, as opposed to Gibson's usual fourteenth. This 12-Fret neck and board length introduce all-new playing feels in the palm and on the fingertips for a new experience worth the trip. A rosewood fingerboard meets up with this neck bearing nineteen frets and Mother of Pearl Dot inlays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis unique 12-Fret L-00 takes a victory lap with a suite of fine hardware appointments. First, a rectangular rosewood bridge appears at the base of the 24.75\" scale with a bone saddle and TUSQ bridge pins for a solid connection and transfer of motion string-to-body. At the scale's opposite end, the iconic Gibson headstock is lined with a bone nut and Golden Age strap tuning machines with cream buttons for smooth stringing. This Gibson Century acoustic features a number of aesthetic appointments like a retro-inspired pickguard as it travels with an included premium Gibson Century Collection tweed hardshell case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA hundred years up, a hundred years down, and the L-00 Century 12-Fret knows how to get it done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- Highlight --\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGibson Century Collection 12-Fret acoustic guitar model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall-scaled L-00 parlor body shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSatin-finished Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMahogany neck in SlimTaper 12-Fret profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12-Fret neck with compound dovetail neck joint and hot hide glue assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosewood fingerboard with nineteen frets and Mother of Pearl inlays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBone nut and Golden Age Strap tuning machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRectangle rosewood bridge with bone saddle and TUSQ bridge pins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGibson Century Collection tweed hardshell case included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Gibson Acoustic","offers":[{"title":"20296083","offer_id":55470722285736,"sku":"OCSBLC12AN|||20296083","price":2299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1210\/3886\/files\/OCSBLC12AN-gibson-l-00-century-12-fret-acoustic-guitar-vintage-amber-1_10e3936d-6671-4ec9-8878-4f35acbcac68.png?v=1777384166","url":"https:\/\/www.russomusic.com\/products\/gibson-l-00-century-12-fret-acoustic-guitar-vintage-amber","provider":"Russo Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
