    Really looking forward to trying one as soon as I can find one… although I can’t help wishing Gibson did the same spec on a 12-fret L-00….

    A very sweet sounding piece, and I'm looking forward to that side-by-side too.

    I've always loved the LG-2. It has a sound of its own, but it's a good sound. ❤️

    Sounds pretty dark and moody, strums well. Love to hear some funky slide an smackin' on this Gibby.

    Cool thanks for letting me know it's shy of 1 3/4" nut width. I was just wondering when you mentioned that.

    • @cricklekid
      @cricklekid 2 года назад

      The spec sheet states it's a 43mm nut which, in the hand, is much narrower than the 1 3/4". It is the classic 1 11/16" which I much prefer. (now all I need is the £4,000 to buy it)

    I would like to see an Epiphone Masterbilt version of this one.

    I guess no side-by-side, as I bought the guitar. Supposed to arrive 2/4!!

    The Gibson LG-2 was never a model that was on my radar, but it is now. I would love to play some fingerstyle on one in person. Secondly, kudos to Quinton for an excellent performance, and if I may be bold a nearly effortless performance. That guitar must really be easy to play.

    Listening through headphones, it has a lot of guts for a small body. Surprising too for mahogany back and sides. Should compete well with Taylor’s new GT series.

    Wish Gibson made a J45 or j-50 with this nut width

    Good tone quality but it kinda sounds like it has extra light strings on

    Around 5:15 or so, are you in a drop tuning? If so, drop D? DADGAD? Please advise, sensei.

    As soon as a used one comes around $3k I’m getting one. 2021-2022 model.

    A big sound signature, but it’s not my cup of tea !
    Nevertheless, I really like the sound of vintage Chris Stapleton one´s

    What’s ballpark price to do an LG-2 M2M with standard C profile? I hate V shape necks

    Martin guitars have much better craftsmanship, and a more complete sound, I have found. This is expensive for a 'basic' guitar. The Waterloo 14 is better in my opinion.

    • @jjmuni
      @jjmuni 2 года назад

      Well it’s from the vintage series and far away from basic.

    • @paulh4954
      @paulh4954 Год назад +1

      I’m a Martin guy as well. But the binding separation issues are a little off putting to me. So recent craftsmanship not so sure.

    Not a fan. Literally it isn’t a fan. But I also don’t like it very much.

    • @bribo134
      @bribo134 3 года назад +1

      I like it but at this price it should also work as a fan
