Specifikation

Originally launched in 1942 during Gibson's famed Banner era, the LG-2 stepped in as the successor to the L-00 and quickly earned its place among Gibson's most beloved small-body acoustics. Released alongside icons like the J-45™ and Southern Jumbo, the LG-2 became a favorite for players seeking a guitar that delivers a big, balanced voice in a more compact form—an ideal alternative to larger-bodied models.Today, Gibson proudly reintroduces this classic with the LG-2 50s Original, a faithful tribute to the highly sought-after 1950s versions. Responding to years of demand, this new model combines vintage-inspired aesthetics with exceptional craftsmanship. It features a solid Sitka spruce top supported by traditional scalloped X-bracing, paired with solid mahogany back and sides for a rich, resonant tone. The body is accented with three-ply top and single-ply back binding, while the mahogany neck sports a comfortable Rounded profile and a compound dovetail joint secured with hot hide glue. An unbound rosewood fretboard with 20 frets and mother-of-pearl dot inlays adds understated elegance. Completing the look is a sloped, rectangular rosewood bridge with two mother-of-pearl dots, bone nut and saddle, TUSQ® bridge pins, Grover® strap tuners with white buttons, and a tortoise teardrop pickguard for authentic vintage character.The Sitka spruce top brings a lively, bright, and balanced tone that sets it apart from wartime LG-2 models with mahogany tops, making it versatile for a wide range of genres and playing styles. Its smaller size offers comfort for players who prefer a more manageable instrument, while providing a distinctive tonal option for recording. To meet modern performance needs, the LG-2 50s Original comes equipped with an L.R. Baggs ™ VTC pickup system featuring discreet soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls. This ensures the guitar is ready for stage or studio straight out of its included Gibson hardshell case-without sacrificing its vintage appeal. Whether you're looking for a go-to couch companion, a reliable live partner, or a fresh voice for your recordings, the LG-2 50s Original delivers in every way.
