In 1994, Gibson released a collection of masterbuilt reissues of their most iconic models to celebrate their 100th year of business. Only 100 of each model were made, and we're proud to offer #98/100 of the 1933 L-Century of Progress run. The original L-Century model was built to celebrate Chicago's 100th birthday and was displayed at the 1933 World's Fair, and this reissue holds fast to the original's specs. The 3-piece V-profile neck is adorned with the iconic pearloid fingerboard and headstock, rosewood and pearl inlays, pearl truss rod cover, and vintage-style Waverly tuners. Other appointments include figured maple back and sides, bone nut and saddle, and the "Centennial Special" sterling silver plaque on the back of the headstock. NOS with original case, book, COA and other memorabilia. This is a fantastic and rare piece for any Gibson collector.
