Check out this 1966 Gibson B-25 3/4 vintage acoustic guitar in Sunburst, complete with its original chipboard case. The B-25 3/4 is the smaller, short-scale version of Gibson’s popular B-25 flat-top acoustic, offering the unmistakable character of a vintage Gibson in a compact and exceptionally comfortable format.

Produced in Kalamazoo, Michigan, the B-25 3/4 was part of Gibson’s lineup during the 1960s and is particularly appealing to players looking for a vintage Gibson acoustic guitar with a shorter scale and smaller body. Its spruce-and-mahogany construction gives it the warm, woody character associated with Gibson’s small-body acoustics, while the approximately 22 3/4″ scale length makes it extremely comfortable for both fretting and fingerstyle playing.

The smaller body and short scale also make the B-25 3/4 a great recording guitar. It has a focused, intimate response that can sit beautifully in a mix without competing with larger dreadnought-style acoustics.

The guitar includes its original Gibson hardshell case. The small cover for the case’s interior accessory compartment is broken off, but the original piece is included with the case.

The bridge plate also appears to have been painted at some point in its history. We have noted this for full transparency, and the guitar is being offered in its present vintage condition.

Why the Gibson B-25 3/4?

The Gibson B-25 3/4 occupies an interesting place in Gibson’s vintage acoustic history. While models such as the J-45 and Hummingbird are more commonly associated with vintage Gibson acoustics, the B-25 3/4 offers something different: a genuinely vintage Gibson acoustic with a smaller body, shorter scale, and distinctive mid-century character.

It’s an excellent choice for a player looking for a comfortable vintage acoustic guitar, a songwriter wanting a compact recording instrument, or a collector looking for an interesting and increasingly difficult-to-find vintage Gibson.

A great example of a 1960s Gibson acoustic guitar, and a particularly cool choice for anyone who appreciates the sound, feel, and character of vintage Gibson instruments.
