Vintage 1968 Gibson B-25 Acoustic Guitar – Sunburst (Original Case)

A Rare Slice of Late-60s Gibson History

Step back into the golden era of acoustic craftsmanship with this exceptional 1968 Gibson B-25. Introduced as the successor to the legendary LG-2, the B-25 delivers that punchy, mid-range-focused tone that fits perfectly into any recording mix or living room jam. Weighing in at a wonderfully resonant 4lbs 0.5oz, this small-body acoustic plays like a dream and carries the distinct pedigree of late-60s Gibson innovation.

Collector-Grade Vintage Details

This specific 1968 model boasts several highly sought-after, period-correct features that make it a standout for players and vintage collectors alike:

• The Rare "Hot-Stamped" Pickguard: Only produced for a fleeting window around 1968, this B-25 features the unique, abstract stamped logo (often colloquially known by collectors as the "boob logo"). Finding one with the silver/gold foil lines still beautifully intact is incredibly rare.
• The "Pencil Neck" Profile: Featuring a 1.56" nut width, this neck is exceptionally comfortable for players with smaller hands or those who prefer wrapping their thumb over the top of the fretboard.
• Original Hardware: Outfitted with its original double-line Kluson Deluxe strip tuners and featuring the era-accurate, dot-less "Gibson" gold headstock decal.
