The L-5 may be one of the best looking guitars ever made. Groucho Marx owned a couple.

Beautiful. That's an L5 Wes Montgomery in Wine Red...the "cheap" finish. I have one with a MoP Heart Inlay made in 2002.

Play it in good health.

I am just starting to learn how to play an archtop. I have a Peerless Monarch and love it. What are your favorite easy chords. I need to get suggestions on easy chords to start with, just a few. And thanks and enjoy that stunning beauty of an archtop you have there. I am jealous.
