Left Handed Guitars

 GIBSON L37 SUNBURST 1936....GUITAR WAS MADE RIGHT HANDED (OF COURSE).... I REMOVED THE ORIGINAL NUT AND BRIDGE AND PACKED THEM CAREFULLY.... I PURCHASED A PERIOD APPROPRIATE BRIDGE AND A NEW LEFTY NUT AND PUT THEM ON THE GUITAR SO THAT WHILE I LET THIS GUITAR INCREASE IN VALUE (THESE GIBSON'S ARE ESTIMATED TO GROW AT A 12% RATE ANNUALLY) I WOULD HAVE THE ENJOYMENT OF BEING ABLE TO PLAY IT LEFTY WHILE I OWNED IT.  i EXPECTED TO KEEP IT A FEW MORE YEARS....BUT A NEW SET OF MICHELINS FOR THE TRUCK REQUIRES SOME OF MY GUITAR COLLECTION TO GO! .....SO SOMEONE ELSE (HOPEFULLY A LEFTY) CAN GET A SHOT AT THIS 75 YEAR OLD GUITAR ....I MUST ADMIT ...IT IS SOMETHING TO HOLD A VINTAGE INSTRUMENT LIKE THIS AND AS A LEFT HANDED GUITAR PLAYER ...HAVE THE CHANCE TO PLAY A PIECE OF HISTORY LIKE THIS....RARE TREAT FOR A LEFT HANDER.....SO ON TO THE FACTS:

GUITAR IS TOTALLY SOLID AND PLAYS AND HOLDS TUNE NICELY - GUITAR APPEARS ALL ORIGINAL (WHEN THE ORIGINAL BRIDGE AND NUT ARE ON IT)
GUITAR HAS ONE LARGE CRACK AND ONE SMALL CRACK ON THE CARVED TOP (THIS IS A REALITY FOR MOST OF THESE GUITARS)  CRACKS (SEE PICS) DO NOT AFFECT THE PLAYABILITY
NUMEROUS SCRATCHES (THIS IS NO MUSEUM PIECE ) AND SHOWS WEAR ON THE GUITAR TOP
NECK IS EBONY AND FRETS ARE IN GREAT SHAPE - NO GROOVES OR OBVIOUS WEAR
BACK OF NECK HAS A MARK ON IT (SEE PIC) BUT HAS BEEN WORN SMOOTH AND NECK IS SUBSTANTIAL AND STRAIGHT AND IS A GREAT GIBSON VINTAGE NECK
TUNERS HAVE BEGUN TO DECOMPOSE TO SOME DEGREE BUT THERE IS STILL PLENTY OF PLASTIC (75 YR OLD PLASTIC!) ON THEM TO TURN EASILY

THIS GUITAR IS ALOT OF FUN AND A PIECE OF HISTORY....BID WITH CONFIDENCE...I WILL PACK WITH GREAT CARE AND SHIP INSURED...I HAVE A NEW BOX AND BUBBLE WRAPPING READY TO GO....SHIPPING IS $38   AND LOCAL PICKUP IS ALWAYS WELCOME....PAYMENT IS PAYPAL ONLY

GOOD LUCK!....JEFF / MARATHONGUITAR
