Comments:

The Gibson B-25 was introduced in 1962 as a replacement for the LG-2 and LG-3 models. It shared the same dimensions and construction as its predecessors, specifically designed as a grand concert flat-top guitar to be more compact and easier to hold than larger jumbo models. It was intended to bridge the gap between student-level and mid-level players by providing a slightly more "midrangey" version of the iconic J-45 sound. The guitar for sale here features an upper-belly style bridge, which was gradually rolled out that year. It also features the narrow neck profile (1 9/16" nut width, approx. 40mm) common to late-1960s Gibsons. During the height of the folk boom in the mid-1960s, the B series was so popular that in 1965 alone, Gibson built nearly 6,000 B-25 models — more than the popular J-45. Unlike the lower-tier ladder-braced B-15 or LG-1, the B-25 features X-bracing, which contributes to its rich, mellow tone and deep resonance.
