The Gibson Hummingbird Special Dreadnought Acoustic/Electric Guitar in Natural Satin carries forward a legacy that began in 1960, when the original Hummingbird quickly became one of the most recognizable and beloved acoustic guitars ever made. This modern take stays true to that heritage while offering an accessible, USA-built option handcrafted in Bozeman, Montana by Gibson’s expert luthiers. From the moment you pick it up, there’s a sense of history and craftsmanship that feels both inspiring and instantly familiar—like an old friend ready to write new songs with you.
Built with a traditional square-shouldered body, the Hummingbird Special pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides, enhanced by classic scalloped X-bracing. The result is a warm, balanced tone with impressive dynamic range, equally suited for delicate fingerstyle passages or full, driving strums. Its slightly thinner “concert depth” body offers a more comfortable feel and a tighter, more focused low end, making it a perfect fit whether you’re playing solo or sitting cleanly in a mix with other instruments.
The attention to detail continues through the neck and hardware. A comfortable Round-profile utile neck is joined to the body using a compound dovetail joint with hot hide glue, ensuring excellent resonance and long-term stability. The rosewood fretboard features a 12-inch radius, 20 standard frets, and classic pearloid parallelogram inlays—an iconic visual signature of the Hummingbird line. A traditional belly-up rosewood bridge with TUSQ saddle and matching nut and bridge pins enhances sustain and clarity, while Grover Rotomatic tuners provide dependable, rock-solid tuning stability.
Plugged in, the guitar is ready for any stage or studio setting thanks to the L.R. Baggs Element Bronze under-saddle pickup and active preamp, complete with a discreet soundhole-mounted volume control. Finished in a smooth satin nitrocellulose lacquer, this Natural Satin model offers a refined, understated look that lets the wood speak for itself. It also includes a premium soft shell gig bag for easy transport and protection. The Gibson Hummingbird Special is available now at Haggerty’s Music, where timeless tone and modern playability come together in one inspiring instrument.
