• Gibson Hummingbird Original

    Category: Product Condition: Brand New

    Our price:

    The unmistakable Gibson Hummingbird is followed by the masses as one of the most remarkable acoustic guitars ever built. The new Hummingbird Original blends vintage appointments and today’s modern, high-quality build construction and includes a fine LR Baggs pickup system.

    This dead mint Gibson Hummingbird Original is dressed in the classic Antique Natural Nitro finish. She blends vintage appointments and today’s modern, high-quality build construction. Outfitted with gold Gotoh Keystone tuners, double antiqued binding, a traditional Hummingbird truss rod cover, and a bone nut and saddle. With the standard LR Baggs Element VTC pickup, she’s also a reliable force on stage as well as in the studio. In the hands of everyone from Keith Richards, Brian May and from Justin Bieber to Taylor Swift, she quickly proved itself equally adept at folk, country and rock, and excelled at many of the crossovers genres in between that helped to set the scene for the ’60s.

    Much of the Gibson Hummingbird’s appeal lies in its versatility. However, she is equally at home thrumming out first-position chords as she is taking the spotlight for flatpicking lead-lines further up the neck. Her spacious Mahogany body combined with a sweet, select Sitka Spruce top is more than capable of nailing down the rhythm in the hands of a rock and roll sideman, or of accompanying the most nuanced performance under the fingers of today’s alternative singer-songwriter. This fine instrument was not played and shows no playwear, so she is dead mint. No issues whatsoever! She will bring you years of inspiration and beauty, the eye and ears.
