The Gibson LG-2 is a standard among songwriters, folk singers and guitarists of nearly any genre. Coined for a fine boxy sound that projects classic Gibson tone, the LG-2 is the perfect companion as a couch guitar or the main one on stage. This example thrives from a number of repairs that leave it stable and sounding exceptional. Thankfully none of the repairs neglected tone and all work together to preserve this instrument for players to come. Repairs and improvements include: a neck reset, refret, bridge re-glue, removed top and replaced tone bars, added finger braces, luck number 13 repaired top cracks with cleats, one cleated back crack and a new nut and saddle. This guitar is well suited for the player looking for tone contribution over a beauty contest. We love to see instruments like this that are preserved out of love and appreciation. No matter the cost, this guitar was kept in excellent playing order from the list of repairs mentioned above.

Comes with a chipboard case
