Product information

How precious is too precious, when it comes to describing a Gibson B-25? Have you seen the reflections on the edge of this guitar's pickguard? Are you questioning whether or not this is a complete refinish, done by the one craftsperson out there singularly dedicated to replicating the look of a late-60's Gibson? You'd be well within your rights if you find yourself wondering such a wonder right now. But we assure you, this is nothing less than a time-capsule-worthy, untouched, gleamingly clean 1967 Gibson B-25. This guitar will be sixty years old before too long; and we have new guitars that arrive with more scratches on them!

The B-25 replaced the LG2 in Gibson's lineup in the early 1960's. Essentially, it's the small-bodied alternative to a J-45 for anyone looking for that super-recordable compressed Gibson chime. Whether you're a collector, or a player for whom a 50's LG2 is a bit of a stretch, this B-25 would serve you extremely well.

Condition: vintage mint, with no issues and all original components. Our techs have restrung the guitar, cleaned it a bit, and set it up anew, but really--this is as close to finding an unopened package of baseball cards from 1967 as you'll get in the vintage guitar world. With its equally clean original hard case!
