Epiphone EL00 Acoustic Guitar (Vintage Sunburst)
It's a Blues Legend! Call it a “Parlor” guitar or a “Blues” box, the original L-00 from the 1930’s and ‘40’s has inspired many with its friendly shorter-scale, small comfortable size yet big acoustic tone. Originally, along with their L-0 and L-1 siblings, were produced as “economy line” guitars, with smaller size and lighter construction. Though discontinued in 1945, it grew over the years in legend from L-series rising from the mythos of music superstars such as Blues progenitor Robert Johnson. Impressive Pedigree! Like its vintage Gibson ancestors, the Epiphone L-00 features a Solid Sitka Spruce top that actually will improve in tone as it ages and is played. The smaller, (15.5” wide at lower bout) L-00 body is Mahogany and is set with a hand-fitted dovetail neck joint using premium Titebond(tm) glue. The Mahogany neck and body combined with the solid Spruce top make for the perfect combination of tone, warm and brilliance with much larger volume than you would expect from a smaller guitar. Other Professional Features! Other features on Epiphone's EL-00 are a solid Rosewood bridge and Rosewood fingerboard with period-correct basic “dot” inlay. Protecting the top from pick marks is a deluxe pickguard with historic metal "E" logo. It is available only in the iconic Vintage Sunburst finish (of course!) and is detailed with premium 14:1 ratio Grover(tm) machine heads with small, vintage style metal tuner buttons. No Blues From Owning One! The EL-00 from Epiphone carries a Lifetime Limited Warranty featuring Gibson 24/7/360 Customer Service and guarantees the guitar against defects in materials or workmanship.
