This 1957 Gibson LG-1 in Sunburst has the look and feel of a well-loved vintage Gibson, showing tasteful character while remaining in great overall condition. The body has been lightly buffed and the neck shows some overspray, both done cleanly and in keeping with its original aesthetic. A few standard repairs and replacement parts have been addressed over the years, but the guitar retains its original charm and structure. There’s no significant wear beyond a few small dings and light playwear on the top. Warm, balanced, and responsive, it captures that unmistakable mid-century Gibson tone in a comfortable small-body package.  Comes with a chipboard case.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
