I just stumbled across an LG-1 from 1963 in Niagara Falls, NY. What a gorgeous, balanced and comfy guitar to play. It's had some work done to ensure the next 60 yrs are good ones. This a great sofa strummer and won't break the bank to pickup a vintage Gibson acoustic that's so player friendly.

So wonderful to year your joy in the LG1. Many of my style are in this video. I started in earnest at 9, so trying to play guitar 62 years. Finally this year I hired a teacher for everything, All theory, piano, guitar, recording studio. I have had 28 guitars. One I still have... the first one. The sound is like bells ringing, like yours. Kept in top condition with improvements to bridge etc. Gibson j-45. I subscribed today. Now at 71 my health is strong. Like you I am grateful beyond words. You know. Thank you Tomo. Much Joy and Life to you in the future. Sam

Sold my 1960 LG-1 in 2010. Owned it for 35 years. Nice guitar and so much nostalgia, but too many guitars at the time and some had to go. Sometimes think I should have kept it, but eventually replaced it with a Martin custom shop 00018. Found the Martin has a wider range of tones and sounds fuller to my ear. Minimal regrets.

It is three years older than I. Many good things come from 60's. I like smaller body guitars. More intimate sound. What a clarity this guitar has? I can hear every note when strumming. It is good guitar sign. Not that big boom dreadnought which is standard country sound. Nice guitar and it things being bigger in size. Congrats!

What a beauty, and sustain forever. Quite loud for its size and great tone across the spectrum as you mentioned. I have quite a few 50s archtops and while I love them ,playing something smaller allows you to try different things, and get a different sound. I recently came across a guitar that was on my radar for a few years but thought unobtainium.I bought a Gibson 51 CF 100e in very fine condition. It is a relative of your guitar but with a Florentino cutaway,a p 90 pickup and the neck used on a 52 Les Paul. . They didn't make many but it's exceptional like yours with lots of sustain. Keep up the great inspired videos. These orphans can become friends for life.

Tomo, you struck gold! I have a 1963 Gibson B-25 cherry sunburst that is identical to yours, mine has an adjustable bridge. I bought mine in 1975 at Brothers Four Music in Seattle from Dick Foley, who was one of the Brothers Four. Mine has terrific bass response and clear ringing highs, it is perfect size to hold. It is great for strumming, flatpick, but especially finger style. I think you will come to love this guitar and will never need another acoustic. Happy New Year, you lucky dog! (PS on Lightnin' Hopkins stuff, when you go from E to A, use your thumb to slide quickly from F# to G before you hit your A string and you'll be cooking with Crisco).

The other important point is that the wood is now almost 60 years old. This is aged in a way a new guitar doesn't have yet and who has 60 years to wait for that to happen? You have brought about 60 years of tone, a rare quality. Good catch. The other point I think this model is ladder braced. So talking about the bracing is important part of the tone consideration and other factors as volume. I have a Gibson 1964 Lg-1 Very nice presentation.

Wow, what a beautiful guitar and you make it sing! I like the smaller body size, too, and completely understand why you'd buy this gorgeous instrument without playing it. Happy playing and I hope you have a great 2023!

What a special find, that guitar sustains for days, and you are correct when you say it sounds like stereo, such a resonant beauty, the harmonics just jump out at you, so happy for you Tomo, we all deserve to have our dreams come true, what a cool guitar,I have the collecting bug too,it can be unhealthy when you run out of space,people have all kinds of collections, don't worry about your collection, they are more like works of art, that have a function, some guys like to be surrounded by beautiful women, guitars are much cheaper,Dan Armstrong is the best, happy new year Tomo.

Thanks so much for your kind words, This guitar really vibrates crazy! I am so fortunate to find this guitar from Rumble Seat Music. I have a little mixed feeling about guitar collection. One side is beautiful & other side not so productive for playing (too much distraction) Happy New Year!

Tomo, that is a beautiful Gibson! Buying guitars is only a problem if you really can't afford them...or if you have to take out a loan in order to go get them. My Best Friend and I a retired and we have about twenty guitars between us. They are a mix of Martin's, Gibson's, Fender's, and others. I have bought guitars before just because of what the back or front of it looked like, and they all turn out to be great guitars. Thank you for taking the time for making this very nice video!

@@TomoFujitaMusic Yes, I whole heartedly agree about that! I've never been able to bring myself to spending anything close to $10,000 per guitar, but we still have managed to collect some nice ones. I have some Luthier friends who make acoustics that start at $25,000 per guitar, and go up from there.

Thanks so much! Yes! Totally. For this video, I tuned it as a regular tuning but for finger picking blues a la Lightnin' Hopkins style. I love 1/2 step a little lower side. I am looking forward to making new finger picking blues lesson videos.
