Selling my Gibson acoustic....basically brand new unplayed. Only Left the case a few times. These are hard to find in left handed.

Gibson Custom’s Nathaniel Rateliff LG-2 Western brings together the earthy charm of a vintage small-body acoustic with the stage-ready practicality today’s players rely on. Inspired by the Denver-based folk artist’s own well-loved LG-2 and Country Western models, it pairs an Adirondack red spruce top with a mahogany body for a punchy, focused voice that suits everything from folk fingerpicking to the soulful, dynamic strumming Rateliff is known for. The comfortable 24.75” scale and bound mahogany neck feature split parallelogram inlays and a classic Gibson headstock adorned with block logo and crown, all wrapped in a warm, vintage sunburst gloss finish.

Modern performance touches blend seamlessly with tradition, including LR Baggs VTC electronics with discreet soundhole-mounted controls; Nathaniel’s preferred layout for maintaining the guitar’s clean aesthetic while still being fully gig-ready. Nickel Gotoh Keystone tuners, a bone nut and saddle, and a hardshell case round out a thoughtfully crafted instrument that reflects both Gibson Custom’s historic craftsmanship and Rateliff’s broad musical range. Available now at Haggerty's Music, this guitar ships with a hardshell case for convenient transport and premium protection.
