Product details

The Gibson Nathaniel Rateliff LG-2 Western is a compact, powerhouse acoustic-electric guitar designed in collaboration with the acclaimed Americana artist. Handcrafted in Bozeman, Montana, this model features a solid Adirondack red spruce top paired with solid mahogany back and sides, offering a warm, articulate tone with impressive projection for its smaller body size. Its 24.75" scale length, vintage V-shaped mahogany neck, and Indian rosewood fingerboard provide exceptional comfort and playability whether fingerpicking or strumming. The guitar’s high headroom and dynamic response make it versatile across folk, soul, R&B, and rock genres—much like Rateliff’s own musical style. Aesthetically, it boasts a Vintage Sunburst nitrocellulose finish, teardrop pickguard, and mother-of-pearl headstock inlays that nod to classic Gibson design. Outfitted with an LR Baggs VTC pickup system for clear, stage-ready amplification, the LG-2 Western is equally suited for the stage, studio, or living room—a perfect choice as a professional-grade workhorse or standout addition to any serious collection.

Condition: Excellent, very minimal play time, no noticeable play-wear.
