The Gibson G-00 appeared in 2021 and hearkens back to classic entry-level models like the LG-0. It also adds a ‘Player Port’ on the upper bass bout that directs sound to the player. The G-00, now discontinued, was part of the ‘Generation’ series, which all feature the secondary sound hole.
Using a small, almost Parlor sized body, the Gibson G-00 features Sitka Spruce for the top and bracing, Black Walnut for the sides and back, Mahogany for the body blocks, linings and neck, and Ebony for the bridge and unbound fingerboard. The nut and saddle are Tusq, and the tuners are Grover Mini-RotoMatic models. As stock, this model did not come with a pickup but this example is fitted with an passive under-saddle pickup connected to an end-pin jack. The finish is a very light satin nitrocellulose lacquer.
This Gibson G-00 example dates to May 24, 2021 and is in excellent condition with very little wear of any kind. It plays quite well and sounds remarkably good. The ‘Player Port’ is anything but a gimmick and does give the player an improved sense of the guitar’s sound. Under other names, these secondary sound holes are found on a number of higher end guitars from custom builders.
The original gig bag is included.
