Sitka spruce and mahogany
With its solid Sitka spruce top, the Gibson L-00 Standard LefthandVintage Sunburst features a true classic among top woods. In guitar making, this type of wood enjoys great popularity due to its brilliant tones and clear dynamic range. In addition, it matures over time and develops an increasingly rich and full sound that gives the instrument absolute star quality. Solid mahogany back and sides, meanwhile, deliver a warm, resonant sound, making them the perfect counterpart to the Sitka spruce. A round midrange, smooth basses, and subtle but clear treble complement the overall sound, providing a perfect tonal balance. In addition to the solid tonewoods, the necessary assertiveness is created by the artisanal hand-scalloped X-bracing, for which the braces are thinned out by hand. This allows for optimal resonance and vibration of the top and amplifies the tone in a completely natural way.
