Description
The Gibson Hummingbird Standard Acoustic-Electric in Southwestern Turquoise brings a bold new look to one of Gibson's most recognizable acoustic guitars. The Hummingbird has long been known for its warm, balanced voice and unmistakable square-shoulder design, and this new finish gives the classic platform a fresh visual identity without changing the formula that made it a favorite for decades. If you want the classic Hummingbird sound with a finish that stands out on stage or in the studio, this version delivers exactly that.
The square-shoulder mahogany body pairs with a solid Sitka spruce top to produce the rich, warm tone that defines the Hummingbird. It responds well to a wide range of playing styles, from steady rhythm strumming to more articulate fingerpicked passages. A mahogany neck with a Rounded profile keeps the feel comfortable and substantial in the hand, while the Indian rosewood fingerboard with mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays completes the traditional Hummingbird look. The iconic Hummingbird pickguard graphics remain front and center, preserving the visual character that players instantly recognize. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
A reverse belly rosewood bridge and Grover Rotomatic tuners help maintain solid tuning stability and dependable intonation. For amplified performance, the guitar is equipped with an L.R. Baggs VTC pickup system with soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls, making it easy to dial in a natural acoustic tone when plugged in. We like this one because it keeps the classic Hummingbird tone and feel intact while introducing a striking new finish that gives this legendary model a fresh personality.
