Gibson L-00 Special Satin Wine Red

Gibson L-00 Special Satin Wine Red

A small-body classic with timeless tone

The Gibson L-00 Special Satin Wine Red continues the legacy of the legendary 1932 L-00 model – one of the most iconic small-body acoustics in Gibson’s history. Handcrafted in Bozeman, Montana, it delivers vintage character and balanced tone in a comfortable, compact design.

Construction and materials

Featuring a solid Sitka spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides, the L-00 Special uses traditional scalloped X-bracing for clarity and projection. The narrow-waisted body produces a focused midrange and tight bass response, ideal for fingerstyle, blues, or singer-songwriter styles.

Neck and playability

The utile neck, joined with a compound dovetail and hot hide glue, features a SlimTaper™ profile for smooth playability. The rosewood fingerboard with 12" radius includes mother-of-pearl dot inlays and 19 frets.

Electronics and hardware

Equipped with an L.R. Baggs Element Bronze undersaddle pickup and soundhole-mounted volume control, this guitar is ready for any stage or studio setting. The rectangular rosewood bridge with TUSQ nut, saddle, and bridge pins ensures optimal resonance. Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners provide reliable stability. A premium soft shell case is included.
