I'm getting ready to buy another Gibson archtop (because I CAN) & I'm seeing a lot of guitars I never knew about before.
Since an L5 or a Super 400 is out of my price range, I started looking at other models, namely the L4 & L7 guitars. Significantly cheaper, to be sure. Then I started seeing even more models, such as the L48 & L50 guitars. Even cheaper still, & vintage to boot.
Does anyone have experience w/some of these lesser Gibsons? How do they stack up? Are there other models I'm missing? & what to look for & consider as I'm browsing through these new-to-me guitars?
Thx
