Gibson L-30

Post by Kurt Temreto »

I would like to build a Gibson L-30, based on an L-00 plan.
The depth of the body is a difficult thing, however, as the info I find on the net is very different.
Anyone own a pre-war Gibson L-30? I would like to know the exact body depth, measured at the neck and at the heel.
Thanks in advance!

I can't give any advice, but I really like the tone of these small archtops!
There is a video on Youtube of a small Epiphone that sounds killer!!!
