The Hummingbird Original in Heritage Cherry Sunburst: A faithful reproduction of the most iconic square-shoulder model Gibson ever built
For over sixty years, the Gibson Hummingbird has been one of the most recognizable acoustic guitars in the world, and the Original line reproduces the early 1960s model as accurately as possible. The Heritage Cherry Sunburst finish is the most classic color for this model, giving the guitar a timeless look befitting its musical legacy. The Sitka Spruce top on mahogany back and sides delivers a warm, full tone with an expressive midrange and clear overtones. The hand-scalloped X-bracing gives the top maximum freedom to resonate, producing a dynamic sound that convincingly renders both subtle fingerpicking and powerful strumming. The LR Baggs VTC pickup transparently captures this character for stage and studio.
The mahogany neck has a Rounded profile with a rosewood fretboard, MOP Parallelogram inlays, and 20 frets over a 24.75-inch scale length. Gold Gotoh Keystone tuners and the Traditional Belly-Up bridge complete the authentic vintage character. The iconic Hummingbird pickguard with its floral motif makes the look unmistakable. Delivered with a hardshell case.
