Built with an all-mahogany body, the Gibson LG-2 All Mahogany Faded Vintage Sunburst brings a warmer, rounder and smoother voice, perfect for folk, blues and fingerstyle lines that need a touch of sweetness without losing clarity. First introduced in 1942 during the “Banner” era, the LG-2 quickly became a beloved small-body acoustic guitar model that was renowned for its big sound.

Gibson has now introduced the new LG-2 All-Mahogany Faded, a modern reinterpretation of those all-mahogany vintage LG-2 models. The LG-2 All Mahogany Faded is constructed using solid mahogany for the back and sides, as well as a solid mahogany soundboard. The mahogany top is reinforced with traditional scalloped X-bracing, and the body features simple black binding on the top and back. The mahogany neck features a rounded profile and is attached to the body using a compound dovetail neck-to-body joint. The neck is capped with an unbound rosewood fretboard, which is equipped with 20 standard frets and adorned with classy yet straightforward mother-of-pearl dot inlays. The LG-2 All Mahogany Faded is fitted with a sloped, rectangular, closed-slot bridge made from rosewood. The bridge features a bone saddle, while the bridge pins are TUSQ Grover strap tuners with white buttons ensure solid tuning stability and, along with the teardrop pickguard, add to the instrument’s vintage charm.

The LG-2 All Mahogany Faded’s smaller dimensions also make it easier to hold than acoustic guitars with larger bodies. In a nod to the needs of modern performers and recording guitarists, the LG-2 All Mahogany Faded is factory-equipped with a Baggs VTC under-saddle transducer and built-in preamp. The Baggs VTC system features soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls that are quick and easy for the player to access while remaining all but invisible to the audience. The inclusion of high-quality discreet electronics makes the LG-2 All Mahogany Faded stage and studio-ready from the moment you take it out of the included Gibson hardshell case, while taking nothing away from its attractive, vintage-inspired character and vibe. Whether you need a guitar for fingerpicking on the couch, performing at blues or folk festivals, or for a new and unique voicing to add to your arsenal of recording guitars, the LG-2 All Mahogany Faded should be on your “must have” list.
