Solid small body

The sound of the guitar is characterized by clarity, warmth and a remarkably direct response. The solid Sitka spruce top in combination with the Scalloped X bracing ensures lively dynamics, fast tone development and an open resonance that reproduces the finest playing nuances in great detail. The solid mahogany back and sides lend the sound a warm basic coloration, focused mids and a natural woodiness that is particularly strong in blues, folk and songwriter styles. The compact body supports a balanced, controlled sound with clear projection and a vintage flair full of character. The result is an expressive acoustic tone that combines tradition and musicality in perfect balance and impressively brings the classic character of the LG-2 to life.

Handy model

The playability of the Gibson Original 50s LG-2 impresses with comfort, control and an authentic vintage feel. The compact small-body fits snugly against the body and makes the guitar the ideal companion for long sessions, relaxed couch playing or precise work in the studio. The short scale length of 628.65 mm ensures a pleasantly low string tension and facilitates both chord fingerings and fine melody lines. As a result, the guitar reacts particularly sensitively to dynamic playing and supports an effortless playing technique. Meanwhile, the mahogany neck with its Historic "V" neck profile conveys a grippy, substantial feel and is based on classic Gibson models. In combination with the rosewood fingerboard, the result is a balanced, smooth playing feel with a clear response and secure control.

L. R. Baggs Pickup

Equipped with the L. R. Baggs VTC pickup system, this professional acoustic guitar is ideally prepared for use on stage and in the studio. The pickup reproduces the acoustic character of the instrument in a transparent and balanced way and captures both the clear highs and the warm mids of the small-body body convincingly. The volume and tone controls discreetly integrated in the sound hole offer a high level of operating convenience and allow the sound to be adjusted directly while playing without changing the classic appearance. As a result, the sound remains controllable at all times and can be versatilely tuned to different musical situations.

Natural design

The design of the Gibson Original 50s LG-2 Antique Natural radiates timeless elegance and authentic vintage character. The Antique Natural finish emphasizes the natural beauty of the wood and gives the guitar a warm, understated aesthetic that is entirely in keeping with the classic Gibson tradition. The look is stylishly complemented by the tortoise pickguard, which adds a striking accent and emphasizes the historic character of the instrument. This combination makes the guitar look both purist and expressive. A design that deliberately focuses on the essentials and makes musical authenticity visible.
