Gibson Nathaniel Rateliff LG-2 Western 2024 - Vintage Sunburst

Nathaniel Rateliff seamlessly fuses country and folk with soul, R&B, and more, creating an irresistible, party-ready sound. His new Gibson Signature LG-2 Western draws inspiration from its namesake, merging elements of the LG-2 and Country Western models to craft a custom acoustic guitar ideal for both stage and studio.

The Gibson Nathaniel Rateliff Signature LG-2 features a compact mahogany body topped with Adirondack Red Spruce, finished in a Vintage Sunburst for a retro aesthetic that matches its rich tone. The 24 3/4” Historic V-shape mahogany neck offers classic comfort and is topped with an Indian rosewood fingerboard, split parallelogram inlays, and mother of pearl Crown and Gibson logo inlays on the headstock. Adding a personal touch, Gibson includes nickel Gotoh Keystone tuners and black bridge pins, mirroring details from Rateliff’s personal LG-2.

This signature LG-2 is equipped with LR Baggs VTC electronics and comes with a Gibson hardshell case. 

It appears this guitar has a small blemish on the top underneath the top coat—very tiny and hardly noticeable. You can’t feel it and can maybe only see it if it gets pointed out to you. It doesn't impact the sound or playability (or beauty for that matter) of the instrument. However, we listed the guitar as B-Stock and discounted the price due to this small blemish. (see last pic)
