NEW ARRIVAL 1947 is a very desirable year for Gibson collectors, the only year the block style Gibson logo was bigger and further down the headstock before, by 1948, it shrunk slightly and was placed in the more recognisable position. The other unusual feature of this guitar is that it’s been re-topped even though it has it’s original bridge and pickguard. The LG2 is a 00 size guitar with very desirable X bracing, making the guitar very resonant - it has great single note clarity when playing fingerstyle, quite a punch when soloing, yet very comfortable being strummed with great overall balance. The other noticeable thing is the depth of bass response which is quite unusual for a small bodied guitar. It has a very comfortable feeling neck and is an absolute pleasure to play. The guitar is in very good condition, with just one repaired back crack. It comes in a non original hard case.
