Default 1957 Factory LEFTY LG-1 all original -x-braced Baxendale $2400

$2400 shipped

SUPER RARE factory lefty Gibson LG-1! Try and find another.

ALL ORIGINAL - tuners, pickguard, bridge, and gator case.

I took this one to the next level by having it X-braced by Scott Baxendale of Athens GA. Scott is renowned for his proprietary x-bracing process where he takes old ladder-braced guitars and hand carves tall, thin, pre-war style bracing.

This guitar is now essentially like a vintage LG-3 but better

The guitar had good tone before, but is now on another level! MUCH more bass response. Deeper and richer. Louder. You can strum it harder!

I went through the whole process with Scott, but really want a larger guitar and have found an old Gibson so I need to sell this one.

read about Scott's process at baxendaleguitar.com

What a beaut! A fellow Lefty here, always happy to see a proper guitar on the classified’s. Christmas is almost here and my pockets are empty with holes in them. Best of luck, it sure would be hard for me to let this one go.....
