We do get requests for L1's and L0's 12th and 13th fret versions --- most are surprised to find out that these
are not ladder braced guitars. I really like the profile of these little guitars. I'll start a seperarate thread on the subject of these Gibson models.

Two of my students have built Ken's L-00 kits and they are awesome. I have a guy now that plans on ordering that kit and we'll just use the materials Ken supplies and make it ladder-braced so he will get the sound he wants.
Walnut/spruce that Eric built sounds especially nice (L-00 'x')
