Iconic Gibson Hummingbird – one of the most recognised guitars of the last 50 years and famous for it's warm, rich tones for all styles of playing. The official colour code on this is Heritage Cherry Sunburst, but in reality it's closer to Honey Burst in our opinion. 

 

It is in excellent condition with just some minor wear and blemishes - most of which isn't visible unless closely inspecting and bouncing light onto the surface, we have have done to exaggerate them in our photos. 

 

The square shoulder dreadnought body design of the Hummingbird is complimented with a AAA-grade, Sitka Spruce top and mahogany back & sides giving the Hummingbird a perfectly balanced midrange tone, with warm, rich lows and crystal clear treble. 

 

The Mahogany neck is joined to the body utilising a dovetail neck joint, the oldest and best way to securely join the neck to the body of a guitar. It is also a complex and expensive neck joint to build but the result is a tight, locking connection that supports the neck at the proper neck-pitch angle, allowing the body and neck to become one solid piece of resonating wood, with no metal to impede vibration. This process is done entirely by hand, requiring patience and skill. The fretboard of Gibson’s Hummingbird is constructed from the highest grade Rosewood and the split parallelogram inlays are made of genuine mother of pearl. It has a double-ring rosette, with the main ring consisting of seven-ply binding and the second ring three-ply binding, adding understated elegance. The tortoise pickguard features the Hummingbird’s traditional floral and bird design.

 

It comes equipped with the popular L.R. Baggs Element Active Acoustic Pickup System which delivers a robust, lively, and natural acoustic sound with excellent dynamics and delicate high end. Finally it comes with its original hardshell case to keep it protected.
