Bought this about a year ago for $100. Wasn't sure what it was at the time, but after researching the batch number, realized it was @ 1933 Gibson L00, that had been refinished, and was a bucket list guitar for me. It spent about a year with my luthier , and I picked it up last weekHe repaired several cracks, a neck reset, and regret with jumbo SS fret wire, new nut ,saddle, bridge pins. Thing is as light as a feather, has a beautiful tone, volume louder than most Dreads, and intonation is dead on. I am going to play and enjoy it for a couple of more weeks, then I will begin work on the finish myself. The plan is to get it back to the original Black with yellow orange burst, but will give it an aged look, rather than trying to make it look new. Will add a firebrand pickgaud as well. Still can't believe that I finally came across one of those deals that you read about, but never get. Just doesn't happen much these days with everyone having the ability to research instruments on line.
