> Wow, oh wow. Here's a real collector's choice. A beautiful 1945 Gibson LG-2 with banner headstock and original case. It's in very good players condition. It's a great sounding guitar for recording, playing live, campfires, the beach. You won't want to leave home without this one. We are selling a bunch of fun pieces in the Wilco Loft sale but this is one of the more serious items. This guitar has lived and obviously been well maintained for 70 years, but there are some visable repairs: there's a surface crack along seam between bridge and endpin, as well as some glue near the bridge indicating some work that was done in its lifetime. There's also a small repaired crack on lower end of the headstock but it does not appear to be from a total break. The tuning pegs and endpin are non-original, though the originals are in the case. These imperfections aside, this guitar has a tone of character and sound, and has been given all the proper care it needs from the great guys at our preferred Chicago repair shop, Chicago Fret Works.
