From the listing

Seller's description

A lovely player-grade 1929 Gibson L-4. This is the round soundhole version seen between 1928 until c.1935 after the transition to f-holes. Other features include a non-cutaway body with carved Spruce top, Maple back and sides and an unbound peghead sporting the era-defining, "The Gibson" logo. The carved Spruce top and Maple back/sides are single-bound as is the neck. The fingerboard has been replaced at some point in its life and split parallelogram fingerboard inlays - a feature of post-1947 models - replace the dot markers used in this period. The soundhole ring is 7-ply black-and-white. It’s had a neck reset so playability is great. Tuners are repro Klusons that function well and the guitar has been refinished.  The sound is typically dry, punchy, articulate and loud—perfect for swing, early jazz, or fingerstyle. This isn’t a museum piece, but it’s a proper working vintage guitar with a great feel and classic tone—ideal for someone who wants the charm and sonic qualities of a nearly century-old Gibson without collector-grade pricing or fragility. It plays well across the neck, sounds great acoustically, and stands as a testament to Gibson’s craftsmanship during one of its most iconic eras. If you’re after a vintage archtop that blends character, history, and playability, this 1929 L-4 is a fantastic find.
