theflyingturtle Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 I will be driving my family to Los Angeles for a short vacation next week. While I am there I would like to check out some LG-2s. Where should I go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tman Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Norman's Rare Guitars on Ventura blvd. It's in the San Fernando Valley but considered LA. If you google it you'll see I am probably right and you'll have a great time just being there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmjohnson Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Good luck! :) I just picked up an LG-2 on Sunday! I went in looking to kill some time (Father's Day), notion of something small(ish), something different, maybe something with electronics - not too much $$$, Was thinking Martin oo-18, oo-15/17 or whatnot. Saw that Antique Natural Gibson, and after trying and comparing with a few others realized it checked all the boxes so decided to get it. haven't had much chance to play, but really liking it!

zombywoof Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 If you are talking about 1940s LG-2/3s, I would never jump on the first one I ran across. Based on those I still own and have owned or which came to visit for a spell in the hopes I would buy them, they were all over the board in sound. I recall two in particular - a 1946 and 1947 - that sounded so different you would not think they were made by the same company. I went through a bunch before I scored my last one which is a '46. Based on that instrument, I would have not been a happy camper if I had jumped on the first couple of guitars I ran across. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
