The ¾ sized Gibson LG-2 ¾ features a 12.75” wide body and a short 22.75” scale. Its neck was designed for small hands, with its 1-9/16” nut and C carve that’s .892” at the 1st fret. Actually, we’ll rephrase that – its neck is very similar to what you’d find on most any Gibson built in the later 1960s. lol

In excellent condition, it’s almost completely original and is largely crack-free (there’s a repaired pickguard crack). The neck has been cleanly reset, and playability is excellent thanks to a recent fret-dress and set-up by our shop. We’ve replaced the tuner buttons on the original Klusons, as well as the nut and saddle. The action is easy and low, and the guitar plays very well. A small finish repair in front of the bridge is this guitar’s only visible flaw, and visible is a stretch.

It has a pretty voice with classic small guitar midrange, succinct bass, and punchy trebles.

Solid spruce top with ladder-bracing, mahogany back and sides, sunburst top, and rosewood board and bridge.

With original chipboard case.
