I've just bought a modern LG2 but to hear those original ones is just such a joy. Great playing, great small guitars, and great short, straight to the point video. Thanks!
Hello John. I have not forgot about you. I am slow but building a small Parlor guitar before I start the Building of the LG-2 style that you helped me with the layout. I will keep you in the know.
I actually read Kalamazoo Gal, great book, thanks you! I have a 1964 LG1, it doesn't have the longitudinal brace on the back a the banner one has. I wonder why the difference, perhaps cheapnes
Thanks! Yes, the bracing is a matter of economics. The Banner-era LG-1s were X-braced with fancy rosettes and purflings. The later LG-1s were ladder braced and had fewer back braces. Still very cool guitar, though!
@@johnthomasguitar no problem :) i wasn't sure if i was wrong either. i just realized last night what i thought i had was an LG-2 but its actually an LG-1 ! 1955
John, what is the Chance of getting you to do me a Favor. Trace the Body of your LG-2 guitar body and mailing it to me? I sure need a copy and can not find one.

Came here to lust after that LG-3, but stayed for the playing. Nicely done John!
Thanks, Travis! How are you?
Greetings from England. Nice playing. You are a very lucky guy owning these historic guitars. I shudder to think what that complete set is worth
Thank you!
Fantastically done; thanks for sharing w/ us!
Thank you!
Remarkable guitars and wonderful playing - thank you!
Thanks, Matt!
Although not surprising, it is certainly interesting to hear how unique they are to one another. Each is very special in it's own way!
Thank you.

Mahogany TOP LG is a LG 0 and is ladder braced. 9:00 . LG 1 is ladder braced sunburst. LG 2 is x braced sunburst. LG 3 is x braced natural top.
Lovely. Any of these for sale?
Thanks. But, alas, I'll never sell these guitars.
in the description is says "The LG-1 and LG-2 shipped in August 1942. The LG-1 shipped on June 23, 1943."
do you mean the LG-3 shipped in 1943???
Thank you for flagging my error! I corrected the description: The LG-2 and LG-3 shipped in August 1942. The LG-1 shipped on June 23, 1943.
