The Gibson L-00 Special brings new life to one of Gibson’s most iconic small-body acoustics, blending vintage character with modern craftsmanship. Handbuilt with care in Bozeman, Montana, this compact powerhouse is designed for players who crave a rich, focused tone in a comfortably sized guitar.
The L-00 Special features solid mahogany back and sides paired with a solid Sitka spruce top, all supported by traditional scalloped X-bracing for outstanding clarity and dynamic range. Its signature L-00 body shape—with a narrow waist and compact frame—delivers a tight, punchy low end and a clear, articulate voice that’s perfect for fingerstyle playing, blues, and beyond. Single-ply binding on both the top and back adds a clean, understated touch.
The utile neck is securely joined with a compound dovetail neck-to-body joint and hot hide glue for optimal resonance and durability. A fast, comfortable SlimTaper™ profile makes for smooth fretting, while the rosewood fretboard, with its 12" radius and mother-of-pearl dot inlays, offers a classic feel and look. The 19-fret layout gives you ample range for expressive playing.
The L-00 Special is equipped with a rosewood rectangular closed-slot bridge, a TUSQ® saddle, nut, and bridge pins, and Grover® Mini Rotomatic® tuners for reliable intonation and stable tuning. Finished in satin nitrocellulose lacquer, it’s available in your choice of Satin Vintage Sunburst or Satin Wine Red, offering timeless looks with a modern edge.
For added versatility, it comes stage-ready with an L.R. Baggs™ Element Bronze under-saddle piezo pickup and onboard active preamp, complete with a discreet soundhole-mounted volume control. Whether you're recording, performing, or just playing for yourself, the L-00 Special delivers the tone, feel, and style that only a true Gibson can offer.
