I haven't tried the Banner reissue, but I do have one of the current 50's LG-2s and I really like it. But it sounds like a new guitar, it feels a lot like my '59 LG-1 but it sounds like a new guitar and I'm trying to play the snot out of it to break it in. If I had the budget for a $4k range guitar, I'd track down an Atkin, they just check all of the boxes. I am considering sending my LG-1 to Baxendale for a conversion, but there is a bit of expense involved.
