The LG-23 is obviously heavily influenced by Fender but is a really nice hybrid of a few guitars with a smaller, Strat/Bullet shaped body with a really nice shape.The neck is a 24.75" scale maple neck that has a thick but comfortable feel. It has a nice thick piece of rosewood for the fretboard with big dot markers. Like most 70's Guyatones it has a zero fret. This one is early - mid 70's and has the metal Guyatone trussrod cover and blockier headstock logo. By '74 the logo on these series had changed to a script logo with "custom made" with serial number under it.The vibrato is of course pure offset and works exactly as you'd expect. It's one of the smoother ones from this era. The bridge is a really nice quality metal (not plastic) Guyatone roller bridge as used on higher end models around this time. It's a narrow string spacing and the neck doesn't have much taper on it from the zero fret to bridge. The pickups are the same as they used on their stratocaster models and have plenty of punchy twang.The hardware and electronics are all great quality and everything works as it should. Is a cool offset guitar from one of the funkiest brands that came from Japan and is pure 70s Japan. Well set up and ready to rumble.
