Gibson Crimson CS L9

Gibson Crimson Custom Shop L9

Made in USA

Serial Number L90022

Overall in very good condition, some lacquer checking in the cutaway, couple of very minor marks, nothing easily photographed. Just been serviced and setup with 11’s, plays and sounds amazing, covers so much ground, great feel to the ’59 neck profile, great balance.

Gibson Crimson master builders take advantage of more than a century’s worth of experience tuning carved tops to dial in a full range of tones–from classic jazz to punchy rock–with a stunning designed inner top carve with just enough mass around the pickups to minimise feedback.

Two 57 Classic humbuckers and a traditional control complement with CTS pots and Bumblebee tone caps translate this guitar’s full beauty, lightweight hardware and vintage Gibson appointments top off a superb look and feel. L5 meets R9.

First appeared in NAMM 2015, very limited numbers worldwide, possibly a max of 50 shipped.
