This LG-1 delivers the dry, woody and responsive tone that has made these small-body Gibsons so desirable. Its lightweight construction and lively resonance make it equally at home for fingerstyle playing or singer-songwriter accompaniment.


The guitar has been carefully inspected and stabilized by our workshop. Several brace and crack repairs were professionally completed using traditional hide glue. A previous pickup system was removed; only the output jack remains, installed cleanly and in a fully reversible manner.


Cosmetic Condition: Very Good.
