LG-2? - JT Selfish IG


Recommended Posts

Is this a performance by you of the song on instagram?  it has a “prove your human” to see it due to “too much traffic.”  I’m wary of clicking through any links with all the spam that has been dropped lately.  I scanned the official vid and didn’t see any guitars.  If it’s you, can you just post it here? I’d really like to see it.

Weird, no it's a video (on YouTube) of Justin Timberlake playing his latest single 'selfish' from his new hit record 'everything I thought it was' on what appears to be a Gibson guitar. I was just curious if it's an LG2 or j45s

Ahh, thinking that might be the other case, in the Youtube vid I watched, he was dancing around solo in various settings.  I was scrubbing through though looking for where he was playing a guitar, so I probably went too fast and missed it.  It’d be interesting if it were an LG2, feels sorta down-market for him.  He’s been usually known/shown for playing a SJ-200.  If it’s not blingy, I’d put my money on a J-45.  But then, I’m a crummy gambler.

Cool, I see you got the clip up while I was typing.  Well it looks it sure looks pretty plain, so yeah you may be right it’s a LG 2.  Or maybe perhaps one of the incognito doves or hummers?  I wish he showed the whole thing!  I’ll just shut up and wait for the real experts to chime in 🙂

I meant compared to his usual SJ, or the things like birds which are quite a bit more.  The LGs, when they came out, were the no frills, economical guitars.  Kinda the niche of the G-line today.   Now they have a cool vintage vibe, and that carries on in the reissues.

I'm going with J-45, the lower bout looks to wide for a LG-2, also doesn't have a tight enough waist for an LG-2.

Nod, I thought the shoulder looked too square, but the angle may be playing with that perception.  What about one of the other Ls? Like a 0 or 00?
