We love Paris! Two beloved Retrofret friends @AdamLevyGuitarTips and @richhinmanmusic strum out a classic on two of our beautiful blondies: a 1946 D'Angelico New Yorker Arch Top and a 1948 Gibson L-5N Arch Top.

This stunning blonde 1946 D'Angelico New Yorker is a wonderful example of this most esteemed builder's finest work, even flashier than most with an unusual extra helping of pearl on the fingerboard. Beyond its visual glory this is simply fantastic guitar to play and hear, as are practically all of the master's instruments. This lovely just-postwar blonde Gibson is one of only 38 natural finish non-cutaway L-5s shipped in 1948, the period that saw the final flowering of the big band era's elegant carved top acoustic guitars. The workmanship on this guitar is to an extremely high standard, as are the woods.
