Here is a funky Gibson conversion, perfect for the player looking for great vintage Gibson tone on a budget. This 1950 LG-1 is a full conversion that has been refinished, replacement parts and converted to X-braced. While the guitar is not very original, it does maintain the original tonewoods and neck that translate to such great sounding instruments. Its understated look and repair history bring its value to a more approachable range for a player to enjoy or for a collector to restore to a more original status. Overall the guitar is in great condition and comes with a 60's Gibson hard shell 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.
