The LG2 was part of the same series as the LG1 and LG3, but it was the only model that continued production during WWII. Due to supply shortages, it was common for Gibson to use mahogany instead of spruce for the top during those years. This hogtop from 1944 is no exception.

It's beloved for its scalloped X-braced top and highly collectible with the Banner logo on the headstock. Besides the Banner logo, the FON number '2651' on the heel block refers to the year 1944. Thanks to its all-mahogany construction, the sound stands out with that extra punch. And don't underestimate the power of this guitar. It seems small and compact, but produces a surprisingly loud tone. Strum a few chords, and it'll practically blow you away! With a softer touch, the clarity of the high notes is particularly noticeable.

Apart from a few small cracks in the binding, this guitar is crack-free and in excellent condition! The crackle pattern has spread over the years to the body and neck, contributing to the ultimate vintage guitar experience. The bridge has been replaced, and underneath it now features a rosewood bridge plate. The original bridge and bridge plate are included. The guitar is still adorned with the original pickguard and tuners, and is a true pleasure to play!
