Roy Smeck's 1942 Gibson L-5 for sale

[Flat]

Roy Smeck's personal L-5 for sale at TR Crandall. Really quite gorgeous. With an interesting provenance. And a price tag to match ($24K. Gulp.).

Oh well. Something to see. More pics at the link.

It is probably a great guitar but maybe at 1/2 the price and add the Roy Smeck to the equation and probably does not matter that much. It looks in nice shape but I don't suppose they will go for 12K$.

I played it a while back and it is very nice!
