Default Gibson dealers???
Who do you guys recommend for buying a new Gibson acoustic? I’m thinking of buying one of the new lg-2 originals. Any idea what sort of discount off of MAP these dealers give. I have been quoted great prices on new Martin guitars so wondering what I can expect on a Gibson.

Yep. I’ve bought most of my Gibsons from Paul and his gang. Good, knowledgable folks. And being just a short drive from the Gibson factory they tend to have solid inventory...

Dave’s Guitars is also a good online choice.

That’s a great little guitar. Be ready for the chunky neck.

Sweetwater generally can't match the prices that shops like CME, Music Villa and others are able to provide.
