[New LG2 Review from Acoustic Guitar Magazine]

[New LG2 Review from Acoustic Guitar Magazine]

Well - That is kinda hard to answer  -  but I play mostly Country style Blues - so when I first picked this L-00 up and slammed a E Chord I knew this guitar was right up my alley.

But that"s just me and my playing style.  I love the feel of the neck and has decent volume.  And most important being older it is a very comfortable guitar to play.  I would defiantly try one before you buy - What sounds good to me might sound terrible to you. 

Bottom line The L-00 to me just Excels more with the Blues sound than the LG Eagle did. Lots of luck - Ken

Myself like Sal - Owned a LG2 Eagle.  It was a fine guitar but never blew my socks off - so away it went.  I picked up a L-00 Walnut burst 6 months back and I still am loving it.  Though it appears not to be a popular model on this forum.  It excels at finger picking and Blues strumming.  Oh and a very affordable American made Gibson Acoustic.

As a Young Boy - The first Really cool Guitar I saw in a Local music store - was a 1965 Gibson J-45 Red with the adjustable bridge and Gibson logo on the pickguard. The store owner wouldn't let me touch it.  But 55 years later I still have that memory of the most Beautiful Guitar I ever saw...   Many Happy years with your new Gibson.

Hey Sal - Another real Beauty - sounds Great too.   I think you and I got our Eagles around the same time.  You gave yours to your Son and I sold mine.  I couldn't really bond with mine.  I recently picked up a new Gibson L-00 / Walnut - And I am really loving this guitar.   Like yourself I use no pick with this guitar and it just sounds Great.  Hope you are doing well.

You are welcome Jeff - I think it is hard to beat "cost wise" for a Handmade all solid wood Instrument made in the Great USA Today. K

I Recently purchased a 2019 Gibson L-00 Studio Walnut burst - I really love this guitar!!! As I am getting older I wanted to pick up a Quality Instrument that was more comfy to play. The 00 fits the bill.  The Fretboard is nice and flat and the guitar just plays so well.  As Far as Walnut being chosen as the Fret board material - I know other companies have used it for years with no issue's. Believe me - your Frets will go long before the Fret board.  It is a small body instrument - so do not compare it to your favorite Dreadnought.  Its a different animal.  For me it has a Heavenly tone and response. The only thing I would change is the Grover Mini Tuners to Grover locking tuners. I have locking tuners on all my Acoustics.  Faster string change and better Tuning stability.

The Gibson - L-00 Studio is a Great buy for a time tested instrument. They are worth trying out.
