Description

Classically compact, unassuming, and oh-so cool, the Gibson LG-2 50s Original is an icon of the Gibson acoustic canon. This little giant of Gibson acoustics comes together in the Original series with upgraded tonewoods, designs, and electronics for a thoroughly modern representation of Gibson's Banner Year couch classic.

In Gibson's Original series, the LG-2 gets a well-deserved throwback to its coveted 1950s models with new, quality electronics. Striking features move throughout the LG-2 50s with innovations and upgrades all along the way. Everything begins with a Gibson LG-2 body brought together from spruce and mahogany. Sitka spruce and solid mahogany produce a masterful mix of brightness and bass with this smaller-bodied acoustic. Gloss nitrocellulose lacquer wraps this acoustic cleanly while traditional scalloped X-Bracing lines up within for enhanced projection and sustain. Three-ply top binding details this LG-2's top for a neat geometric accent.

Affixed to the body through hot hide glue adhesive with compound dovetail neck-to-body assembly, this LG-2 50s Original features a mahogany neck in a Historic V profile. This Original series lines up with a rosewood fingerboard with twenty Standard frets and understated Mother of Pearl Dot inlays. Comfortable and articulate, the fretting feel of this LG-2 is seamless.

Backing up its musicality, the LG-2 50s Original HiFi features a robust lineup of hardware specifications. A rosewood sloped rectangle bridge lands with a drop-in bone saddle for a solid transfer of motion string-to-body. At the scale's opposite end, a bone nut and Grover tuning machines make for smooth stringing and sturdy intonation. The tones of this little wonder are translated to the stage or studio seamlessly with exclusive Baggs HiFi DNA pickup and preamp electronics. An included hardshell case travels with this LG-2 for safely moving from place to place.

This compact classic of Gibson history punches way above its weight class in the Original series with all-new exclusive Baggs electronics.
