About the Product
Developed in the 30’s, the L-00 was an industry standard for many years. The L-00 Standard beautifully captures the heritage of those exemplary early models. With perfect balance, the L-00 has unparalleled projection not found in comparable small body guitars.
The Epiphone EL-00 has select mahogany back and sides with a solid spruce top. The neck is mahogany with the comfortable Slimtaper D profile and dovetail neck joint. It is made out of nickel hardware with compensated saddle.
