Description

The Gibson Hummingbird Standard has a storied history in the world of acoustic guitars, first appearing in 1960. Notable players from Keith Richards to Gillian Welch have played the Hummingbird, making it a true chameleon whose sound is versatile enough to be played in various style of music, while still offering its own unique voice. 

This limited edition iteration of the Gibson Hummingbird Standard features a gorgeous Honeyburst gloss finish that accentuates the natural beauty of its woods. The guitar's crown jewel is its Adirondack red spruce top, which is paired with back and sides crafted from solid mahogany. This combination offers a unique take of the voicing of this J-45, and is coupled with a mahogany neck that's carved to a Rounded profile, and topped with an Indian rosewood fingerboard. The fingerboard features a radius of twelve inches, and is topped with twenty frets, with Mother-of-Pearl Parallelogram inlays and offering a total scale length of 24.75 inches.

With onboard L.R. Baggs VTC electronics, this guitar offers a high-fidelity plugged in experience that recreates the nuanced tonal qualities it has to offer with clarity. Volume and tone controls conveniently mounted around the soundhole allow for easy adjustments on the fly.

The Honeyburst gloss finish on this Hummingbird Standard is a true classic that expertly highlights the natural grain patterns of the Adirondack red spruce found on the guitar's top, creating a visually stunning instrument that is as captivating to look at as it is to play. A gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish adds a touch of vintage vibe and protects the wood, without doing too much to constrict its resonant properties. 

This limited guitar comes with an included hard case.
