This is the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom Hummingbird Deluxe EC in Natural; a modern, stage-ready take on one of the most iconic acoustic designs. If you're a gigging player or songwriter who likes to explore the upper register, the cutaway gives you easy access while the deluxe appointments make it feel a notch above your standard Hummingbird. It's especially great for lead players or anyone wanting a full-featured acoustic-electric right out of the box.

This model uses a thermally aged solid spruce top for volume and resonance, with solid rosewood back and sides for added depth, clarity, and sparkling highs. The one-piece mahogany neck features a rounded "C" profile and a smooth ebony fingerboard with split parallelogram inlays. You get premium touches all over, 6-ply top and 4-ply back binding, an ebony reverse belly bridge, gold Grover tuners, and a gold-etched Hummingbird pickguard. For live or recording, the L.R. Baggs VTC Bronze pickup system with soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls gives you natural plugged-in sound.

Playability is easy and comfortable, with great upper fret access and solid tuning stability. Each one comes with the Epiphone Protector Ultralite case, which is lighter than a traditional hard case but offers plenty of protection for getting to gigs or sessions. We've been impressed by how the Hummingbird Deluxe EC brings together tradition and modern needs without compromise.
