- slightly arched spruce top, mahogany back/sides/neck, bound body, bound rosewood fingerboard with dot inlay, rosewood bridge, "The Gibson" headstock logo, special round Nick Lucas label, this model underwent redesign several times in its short production span, originally introduced as a mahogany/spruce "Robert Johnson" shaped guitar with at least a 4.5 in. depth and 12 frets to the body, models can be found with 12, 13, and 14 fret-to-the-body fingerboards in mahogany, rosewood, and maple, available in Sunburst finish, original body width was 13.5 in., later mfg. was 14.75 in. wide, 19.25 in. long, 4.5 in. deep, mfg. circa 1928-1941, limited mfg. (probably less than 250 instruments).

In 1929, this model was redesigned in the L-00 body shape, retaining its deep body and 12-fret configuration. During 1930, most production featured rosewood back and sides, 13 frets to the body. During 1932, an adjustable bridge and tailpiece were listed as optional. In 1934, 14 frets to the body, mostly maple back and sides (mahogany on some), became standard. While this model was discontinued in 1938, the last production was shipped as late as 1941.
