The Gibson Hummingbird Standard in Vintage Sunburst
The Gibson Hummingbird is a versatile guitar perfect for singers and songwriters strumming chords in first position, as well as for picking out lead lines up at the "dusty end". The dreadnought shape, mahogany body is paired with a sweet - select Sitka Spruce top can be driven loudly for clear output, but is warm and responsive enough for nuanced finger-style playing. The Hummingbird is a comfortable round profile that will be agreeable to most players, and of course has the iconic parallelogram inlays on the fingerboard. Grover Rotomatic tuners, are a nice feature and aid tuning stability greatly. Electronics being provided by the exccellent LR Baggs VTC System. The guitar is ready to go - on any stage or studio, and comes with its Hardshell Case as standard also.
