Gibson L-00 Special Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Rosewood Fingerboard, Satin Wine Red
A small-bodied acoustic with a remarkably big voice, the Gibson L-00 Special returns for 2026 in a stunning Wine Red satin finish. Originally introduced in 1932, the legendary L-00 has earned its reputation as one of Gibson’s most beloved acoustic designs, delivering exceptional tone, comfort, and portability in a compact package.
Handcrafted in Bozeman, Montana, the L-00 Special features a solid Sitka spruce top paired with mahogany back and sides, creating a rich, articulate sound with impressive depth and projection. Traditional scalloped X-bracing enhances resonance and dynamic response, producing a balanced tonal character that shines whether strumming chords or exploring intricate fingerstyle passages. Its iconic narrow-waist body design offers outstanding playing comfort while tightening low-end response for enhanced clarity and definition. Elegant appointments include single-ply cream binding on both the top and back, complemented by a classic faux tortoiseshell pickguard that pays tribute to the model’s vintage heritage.
The utile neck is joined to the body using Gibson’s renowned compound dovetail neck joint and secured with hot hide glue for optimal tonal transfer and long-term stability. Shaped to a fast and comfortable SlimTaper profile, the neck features a 12-inch-radius rosewood fingerboard fitted with 19 standard frets, delivering a smooth and effortless playing experience across the entire fretboard.
At the headstock, Gibson’s iconic open-book design houses dependable Grover Rotomatic tuners for precise tuning stability. A closed-slot rosewood bridge fitted with TUSQ bridge pins ensures efficient string energy transfer and reliable performance.
Ready for the stage, studio, or home, the L-00 Special comes equipped with an L.R. Baggs Element Bronze active under-saddle pickup system and onboard preamp, featuring a discreet soundhole-mounted volume control for natural amplified acoustic tone.
Supplied with a premium softshell case, the Gibson L-00 Special is built to inspire wherever your music takes you—from songwriting sessions on the couch to performances under the spotlight.
