Gibson's LG series guitars were crafted with simplicity and practicality, featuring a smaller body size that delivers a warm, balanced tone. This model retains that iconic vintage Gibson sound and has undergone repairs to ensure it continues to play and sound fantastic for generations.

The guitar has been internally converted from ladder-braced to x-braced, had its neck reset, a back brace at the lower bout replaced, the bridge plate, bridge, saddle, and bridge pins replaced, and a B-string crack glued. Additionally, the back was removed and re-glued, the back, sides, and neck were refinished, and the back braces were re-glued. Thanks to the work done, this instrument plays and sounds absolutely incredible. The tone that makes these golden era Gibsons so desirable is definitely here.

HSC included.
