For sale: Just off the workbench, this Gibson LG1 ( 7594-8) 1957-59, is ready to make music again. All necessary repairs have been done including new bone nut and saddle, two minor crack repairs, and a fret polishing and setup. Neck is straight with room to adjust on the rod. Narrow frets, pickguard not shrinking/warping, finish checking, yellowing lacquer etc. all original parts except bridge pins and end pin. New owner will likely wish to replace tuners as they hold fine but turn a little unevenly. We can do this for parts and labor. Comes with brand new TKL arched top case. $3200
