Description
A true vintage beauty with an ultra cool vibe & gorgeous tone. This stunning Hummingbird exudes '70s cool, delivering a warm, rich tone with a mellow sweetness that just cannot be replicated with any custom shop. It's quite clear why the Hummingbird was the Stones' go-to acoustic & can be heard on countless tracks over the decades. Professionally inspected & set up by the experts here at Cream City Music, so it's ready to play upon arrival.
Cosmetic Condition: Nice shape for being around 50 years old with some typical play wear - various nicks, chips, dents, dings & scratches. There are two tiny cracks in the soundhole on either side of the neck & another just behind the bridge. All the cracks have been professionally glued & cleated. Overall the guitar looks cool & has a beautiful patina.
Neck: Mahogany neck with nicely aged cream binding & tortoise side-dots. Rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl block inlays. Frets are clean with no wear. Grover Rotomatic tuners with nickel Keystone buttons. 1 11/16" nut width; 25 1/2" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works fine.
Body: Double-bound, square shoulder dreadnought. Solid spruce top in Natural finish with 5-ply binding. Rosewood bridge & end-pins with mother of pearl dot inlays. Hummingbird motif pickguard & multi-ring rosette. Mahogany back & sides in Cherry finish also with 5-ply binding & checkered center strip. There are no electronics & the guitar weighs 4 lbs 7.4 oz.
Case: Original hardshell case included.
