The Gibson LG-2 was first introduced in 1942 during the “Banner” era as a replacement for the earlier L-00. It was released alongside other legendary Gibson models such as the J-45™ and Southern Jumbo and quickly became a popular small-body acoustic guitar model celebrated for its big, yet balanced sound, providing an excellent small-bodied alternative to larger models like the J-45. The LG-2 50s Original now comes equipped with the Gibson-exclusive, custom-voiced Baggs™ HiFi DNA™ pickup system, delivering the guitar’s natural character and every nuance of your playing with exceptional realism when amplified.
