1970's vintage Gibson L6-S Deluxe guitar with original hard shell plush lined case in great shape. Easy playing, low action. Amazing rock and roll vibe. Features time tested three position pickup selection switch instead of the hard to use 5 position switch found on the Custom model. Original Bill Lawrence high output pickups that sound awesome. Some history from Wikipedia: Around 3,500 L6-S Deluxe guitars were produced. The Deluxe had a set maple neck, with a rosewood fingerboard. Controls include a pickup selector, master volume, and tone control. Strung through the body. Mike Oldfield used this model around 1979 for the recording of Incantations and for the tour. Later, the guitar was modified by English luthier Tony Zemaitis and the black pickguard was changed with a handmade metal pickguard. The headstock was sanded and a metal pickguard was made to cover the logo. He used the guitar to record Platinum and it can be seen at the 1980 Knebworth concert.
