    When he put that on his lap reminded me of watching Jeff Healy playing at the 5 Fisherman back in Halifax many moons ago , well done Sir .

    Jeeze, the playing is so beautiful I’m actually moved to tears. That has to be JRS’s best performance among many. Loved it dude! Merry Christmas Hanukkah Kwanza Festivus Holidaitus!

    Smokin ! Who else can play an L- 1 like that !! Thanks Jack. And thanks to Norm's luthiers who probably set up this 1920 guitar and many, many more.

    check your date, L-1's were arch-tops in 1920. your guitar was made at least 6 years after that. Loar originally designed the L series w/violins in mind. cheers

    My family recently found one of these "The Gibson" L1's in the grandparents attic, unfortunately it's very beat up and not currently playable. It's nice to see one in its full glory, it sounds fantastic

    Wow, just WOW!!!
    You never cease to amaze me Jack! You are overflowing with talent and it just spills out of you! (Not to mention you’re funny as Hell!) I loved your original and when you started playing some Ragtime, the guitar seemed to smile (then you got a smile out of me when you went into the Christmas tune)
    Merry Christmas from WV Brother!

    Jack,
    Glad you played that slow fingerpicking blues. I could tell you play well when you play fast stuff. Now I also appreciate your slow stuff, and country singing.
    You and Lemmo and Coby and a drummer , at your level, would make a great band. Of course Norm would be your agent/manager and Jen the Byeee Girl as computer and camera wiz,
    Brandon, our relaxed historian guitarist and a host of music lovers, famous and soon-to-be famous Rare Guitar Geekers, rejoice and lift a cup , without picks, to "Long live Guitarists at this time of light."

    Great playin! I just found one of those L-1s in an old country antique shop in Louisiana, terrible condition, but can’t wait to get started on it. I think it’s a 1928?

      Sometimes we play with them like they’re bowling pins. Ever seen a prewar L-5 crack after between thrown into a few pinstripe tweed cases?

    I noticed that although the makers went to the trouble of making an arched back, they did not make it bookmatched. Does anyone know why they would make it that way?

    I was gone for fourteen days
    I could've been gone for more
    Held up in the intensive care ward
    Lyin' on the floor
    I was gone for all those days
    But I was not all alone
    I made friends with a lot of people
    In the danger zone
    See my lonely life unfold
    I see it every day
    See my only mind explode
    Since I've gone away
    I think I lost some weight there
    And I, I'm sure I need some rest
    Sleeping don't come very easy
    In a straight white vest
    Sure like to see that little children
    She's only four years old, old
    I'd give her back all of her play things
    Even, even the ones I stole
    See my lonely life unfold
    I see it everyday
    See my lonely mind explode
    When I've gone insane
    I wanna get outta here
    I…

    1920 they still were making archtops. Not flattops. This guitar must be a little later. Actually more desirable with the flat top
