1963 Gibson B25

Sep 30, 2026 | Gibson

SOLD   The B25 often goes under the vintage radar. Until 1962 it was better known as the very desirable LG2, then had its name changed to B25 in 1963. It’s still a classic 00 size X braced acoustic, with Spruce top and Mahogany back and sides. But if you’re a fan of a 60’s cherry sunburst finish, then it’s a B25 you want. As an early 60’s example the guitar has the more desirables wider neck, and the most vivid cherry sunburst, which contrasts well with the beautiful tortoise pickguard. Tonally it’s quite expansive for a smaller body, evenly balanced and resonant. It’s in excellent all original condition, with no cracks or repairs, just a few nicks and dings, and some visible playwear on the back, plus some cool looking lacquer checking. The guitar feels really solid, and plays very easily with a comfortable feeling neck and low action. It comes in a non original, hard case.
