That's a great sounding guitar! What is the song you played in the video?

Thanks for posting. Enjoy your channel and hope to get through a few more of your videos soon. I work with Jay (John) at Air and Space. He informed me about your channel. Glad he did...take care.

Thanks for sharing man! piece of history right there

That breaks your heart I can tell

That’s awesome Eb

rad.

awesome

Reallĺlly good sound .god job it has soul. Lee1

Can't believe what a great job you did after stumbling upon the vid. These old guitars have a soul. I would have just presumed it was beyond hope. I have to ask the question, what would it be worth now? And what did you charge? None of my business, but still...

Im currently doing the same to a 61 model

Out of tune

I have a Kay solidbody from 66 or 67, a sort of offset SG shape with a weird brown/gold burst and two "star stencil" pickups. I posted a video of it on my channel, disassembled so you can see the pickup wiring, trussrod adjustment and neck pocket. Mine has Kluson tuners and a weird badge/medallion.

this is great !

Cool guitar! What scale length is it? It looks like a short scale.

That's just like my Japanese Silvertone, but it needs new tuners. A fun instrument with a nice p-90 pickup.

Just like mine, don’t sell it short with some gain and a Marshall it’ll do AC/DC all day!👍

Great work Eb!

Hey Eb, that s a nice project! Do you have any drawings of the top bracing? I want to build a copy of an LG Guitar and measured the old LG0 from a frind of mine. But for my build I want to go for X bracing. If you have a plan or drawing with correct specs that you would like to sell I would be very happy :-)

Very interested to see (and hear) how this turns out as I have an old LG1 myself. Will you be x-bracing it exactly as if it was an original 50s LG2? Adding a backstrip?

Let'er rip tater chip...show us your stuff !!

The spinning scares me.

A lovely guitar which I'm assuming has gut strings on it now, is that right? Sounds great. Not at all like a toy.

Beutifull repair looking forward to se it done.lee1

Some years ago a neighbor of mine had one of these. It had belonged to her late husband. I help her sell it to my cousin Eric Schoenberg.

Beautiful guitar!

Very nice cheers for sharing Greg 60 years old Coolangatta Australia 🇦🇺

I think martin guitar

They were sold with music lessons. The numbers on the fret board relate to how to play instructions.

Don’t know what it is but it sounds bloody awful!😂😂😂

Nice burst! Are you spraying or hand applying the lacquer? Thx.

I really enjoyed this. 😎 let us know how it breaks in. Edit by me. 😄 BTW. Very interesting choice for The Redwood bracing.

A lot of these Norlin era guitars have plywood bracing. I found a 1973 Gibson Gospel in a trash pile in an old lady’s living room. I gave her $20 for it. I paid my guitar shop to fix it and remove all funky parts with solid wood bridge and plywood under the saddle maple bridge plate and bone saddle and nut. The Gibson turned out fantastic sounding. It sounded very close to my Santa Cruz Brazilian Rosewood Dreadnought

the design on the headstock should lead to an answer to it's maker, though there's no guarantees but a gppd clue. perhaps?

Really cool job and you demonstrate it's potential well. I think your downward pressure theory has a lot of merit.

Looks a lot like a Washburn Presentation circa 1920 that was featured in Guitar World magazine. It's so close, but not exactly the same. Absolutely stunning guitar whatever it turns out to be.

Washburn made 125th anniversary parlor guitar that looked just like that

Sounds like a Washburn looks like a Martin

Man, it's a dead ringer for an early Martin. I'm stumped.

Ngl, you’re stressing me out the way you’re flipping that thing around. 😮. Great video though. 😊

Grown man with clown glasses. You're not a serious person.

Hey, could you answer me a question about this guitar please? I just got the same one off eBay and...I don't know if there's something wrong with the fret board or if the strings are just installed to closely to the board...but the strings get cut off at the end of the fretboard (near the middle of guitar, I mean) and so anything I play fret-wise isn't fretted, if that makes sense. You play a string and it doesn't make a the right note because it's fretted...by the end of the board sticking up too far (or the strings being too low because I realize this is called an archtop and so it's the first time I've had one, but I would think that has something to do with it.....)

Fun times.

How long were y’all together?

Nice burst!

Where is your shop located? I’ve got a ~1963 LG-0 and a ~1951 LG-2 that both need work. Thanks-

I'm a banjo maker, this is something to think about! Maybe a 5-string banjo to add? Thanks for the idea! I think a banjo to modify rather than a drum! Sure sounds different!
