Introduced in 1922, the L5 was a large bodied archtop aimed directly at the jazz market. The original models were F-hole acoustics with a trapeze tailpiece, floating bridge, and triple bound top, back and pickguard. 1950 saw a cutaway added and the body slightly enlarged. One year later, an electric version, the L5CES, was introduced. Single coil P90 pickups were standard until '57 when they were replaced with PAF humbuckers. The L5 remains a staple of the gibson line and jazz guitarists to this day.
