Gibson / 1963 LG-1
LG-1 is an entry-level model designed for beginning students and casual players
The body is a compact "concert" size, approximately 14.25" wide and easy to handle.
The top is made of solid spruce and has ladder bracing. This ladder bracing is simpler than the X bracing on the LG-2 and LG-3, but its unique tone is appealing.
The LG-1 presented here is a 1963 LG-1.
In this age, the original has a plastic bridge.
It has a unique airy feel and is attractive enough, but it is rare to see a complete one because it is cracked or floating.
The bridge was also cracked and distorted when it arrived, so it was made of Hakaranda wood.
The sound had a lot of potential to begin with, so when I played the finished product, I couldn't help but smile.
Compared to the LG-2 (B-25), this guitar has a looser, more sultry sound that is almost addictive.
And please try playing it in a whole note lower tuning. The wound strings are a bit jumpy due to lack of tension, but even this is an accent that accentuates the character of the instrument.
Even though it is an entry-level model, it is not to be underestimated.
