I have been interested in buying an LG2 for a couple of years, but lately I'm concerned about: 1) the weird tendency of the "B" string to detune; 2) Gibson acoustic guitars' reputation for headstock breaking. Neither of those two should be happening on a Gibson and it is difficult to understand why these problems have yet to be corrected by Gibson.
Absolutely in love with it. It’s become my daily driver due to everything from size and ease to play to sound and comfort. And it’s just so inspiring and beautiful to look at. I have not installed a strap button. I probably won’t because I have 2 other acoustic guitars that have them installed and if I want to do a live show with an acoustic, I would just use one of them. As of now, this is becoming my home guitar for writing and recording along with my j45. But, if I needed to add a strap button. I would most likely put it on the back of the neck joint. My J45 came factory installed on the inside of the neck between the body and even though that is accepted as the correct position and doesn’t get in the way. I visually hate the way it looks and I always feel like my hand is going to hit it, even though it never does!
Massively loving the neck! It feels thick without being big. I’m not sure about the historic V carve, it seems round to me. But, it’s super comfy. I’m loving the guitar. It’s so light and easy to play. Enjoy yours. Let me know how you like it.
He is a massive Americana Rock artist. The guitar is not a J-45. It’s a small body LG-2. It looks similar to the J-45, but it’s about 1/3 smaller and sounds bad ass!!!
I played a bunch of gibsons today, when I got to this one I couldn't believe how easy it was to play! It's "the one" lol
Did you take it home?

You still loving your LG-2 NR CW? Did you install a neck strap button? If so, where?
