So here's one you don't see every day: A LG-1 replica crafted by the Gibson Custom shop in Montana in 2006. Original case and COA are included. And check out those funky 3-in-line tuners.
This little guitar sounds huge. It sounds more like a mahogany dreadnought than a small-body. It doesn't quite have the booming low-end of the larger bodies, but it does have a pronounced, articulate midrange and projection of a larger acoustic. Comfortable and easy to play, it has the feel of some much older Gibsons and Martins I've played- it's not the prettiest guitar in the world, but it's got that warm, broken-in sound like some long-forgotten gem in your granddad's attic. Except this one stays in tune!
Neck is straight, no body damage, just the finish scratches and dings shown in the photos. Frets are in good shape, the installed pickup sounds great.
Notable quirks:
Update: I tried to take some photos of the nut and neck widths. Not 100% exact, but should give a pretty good idea.

Notable quirks:
- This is a Gibson Montana custom, 20 were made. It is not a reissue.
- It has a pickup transducer installed, I was told it was a K&K (Pure?) installed around 2010.
- The Gibson pickguard was replaced with a Martin-style pickguard by a previous owner. I don't have the original.
