The front of the body has numerous scratches, dings, and other blemishes, as well as a few repaired cracks. The sides of the body have additional dings and chips, and the binding has been reglued in several spots. The back of the body has a large crack at the treble bout, which has been stabilized with internal cleats, and the finish appears to have been smoothed out to a satin. There are additional light scratches on the back. The back of the neck has worn nicely, and the peghead face has some finish hazing and light wear as well.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTech Notes: \u003c\/b\u003eThe guitar plays well with low action; the guitar is currently set up with 12-51 pure nickel strings with a wound G. The truss rod has somewhat limited adjustability. The frets are narrow and low with heavy wear in the first position, but the guitar plays cleanly and has been set up appropriately. There is no visible serial number or factory order number; the body shape and style, materials, peghead logo, and appointments date the guitar to the 1930s.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39500358254727,"sku":"U3254820901","price":20925.0,"currency_code":"MXN","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0343\/4368\/2183\/products\/gibson-acoustic-guitars-archtop-gibson-l-50-sunburst-1930s-u3254820901-28402036670599.jpg?v=1648875179","url":"https:\/\/www.chicagomusicexchange.com\/en-mx\/products\/gibson-l-50-sunburst-1930s-1198065","provider":"Chicago Music Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
