A true winner of an acoustic from Gibson's "Banner" years, we have the Gibson LG-2 All Mahogany Faded. This compact, small-bodied, and player-friendly Gibson acoustic follows up generations of Gibson excellence as it hearkens to Gibson's Banner year of 1942. An all-mahogany build makes this acoustic a definite dream for Gibson fans of all generations and players of all marks.

If you were a Gibson enthusiast in 1942 (or know a bit of your history), you'd know that that year was a pretty pivotal time for the legendary guitar brand. With the introduction of the LG-2, Gibson brought about a smaller-scaled acoustic made of mahogany and a red spruce top. Regardless, wartime material shortages meant substitutions occurred frequently. All types of guitars came about from these cycles of shortages. However, today's LG-2 All Mahogany Faded is well, just that. Gibson's acoustic mastery manifests through this all-mahogany body and neck build perfect for any type of music. This build aligns with a number of fine Gibson specifications resulting in one knockout of an instrument.

As we just said, the Gibson LG-2 All Mahogany Faded assembles with a Gibson LG-2 body made entirely of mahogany. Solid mahogany is called upon to make up its back, sides, and top. The guitar's understated black binding lines its edges while a traditional scalloped X-bracing pattern delivers that ever-important boost in projection. The body is then treated to a classy, faded Vintage Sunburst finish that gives it a refined aesthetic.

This LG-2 at this point welcomes a mahogany neck shaped in a Rounded profile with a compounded dovetail neck-to-body joint. Effortlessly playable, this neck is then coupled with an unbound rosewood fingerboard lined with twenty Standard frets and detailed with humble Mother of Pearl dot inlays. Playability is further prioritized with a number of reliable hardware appointments such as a sloped, rectangular rosewood bridge with a bone saddle and TUSQ bridge pins. At the scale's opposite end, Grover Strap tuning machines and a bone nut meet at the headstock for seamless tuning and string changes. An L.R. Baggs VTC under-saddle transducer pickup is built into this LG-2 to meet the performance needs of modern players. This Gibson LG-2 All Mahogany travels with an included Gibson hardshell case.

A small-scaled companion to meet you on your musical journey wherever it takes you, to the stage or the couch, the LG-2 All Mahogany Faded is a wonderfully welcoming entry to the Gibson Acoustic lineup.
