Title: dBerch's '31 Gibby
Post by: dberch on January 14, 2015, 12:35:07 PM
Picked this up while in Colorado a couple months ago. Getting a couple loose braces reglued and OF COURSE had a K&K installed.  Seems my guitars keep getting smaller. ;)
'31 Gibson L-0 all mahogany.

Hey, your hat got darker as the pic got brighter! I've always wanted one of those small body Gibsons. Looks like a goodun. What kind of stuff are you playing on it?

A lot of songs that I love and a few that I play, as well. I'd certainly enjoy that show.  :thumb

I like these old small Gibsons. What is the nut size?  I had a small body Gibson that had a 1 5/8s and that was the only thing I didn't care for.

Riverbend, it is 1 3/4 nut and 2 5/16 spacing at the saddle. Perfect for me.

Thanks Dan, Duck.
