The Gibson "J-45," an eternal object of admiration for flat-top guitars and a working horse. While it's well-known that the J-45 was born in 1942, it's a little-known fact that the LG-2, a downsized model of the J-45 with similar specifications, also began production in the same year. This particular instrument is a "1942 LG-2 AJ 1930s Burst VOS" model, which adopts the design of the Advanced Jumbo. It's a used item from 2025. A small-bodied model that represents Gibson. Since its introduction in 1942, it has remained one of the most popular flat-top models, loved around the world. This guitar features a thermally aged Adirondack red spruce top, mahogany sides and back, mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, rosewood rectangular bridge and short saddle, 3-in-line open-plate tuners, diamond and arrowhead inlays, a tortoiseshell small pickguard, a 1930s-style sunburst finish, and an L.R. Baggs Element VTC pickup. The top is made of Adirondack red spruce treated with the recently popular "thermally aged" process, resulting in a dry, clear, and articulate sound that, despite being a recent model, doesn't feel muddy?a hallmark of this Custom Shop instrument. While there are some minor scratches visible upon close inspection, there are no significant flaws or signs of wear that detract from its appearance. The neck is in excellent condition. This guitar is ready for years to come. An original hardshell case is included.
