Incredible vintage 1968 Gibson Hummingbird in vintage cherry sunburst.

S/N: 500469

This beautifully crafted guitar sounds unreal with its piano like tone and resonance aided by the spruce top and mahogany back and sides.

This guitar really does scream out Keith Richards a’la ‘Wild Horses’ era.

It is in MINT collector grade condition with only some very minor lacquer checking and a slight blemish on the rear of the headstock.

The guitar is setup perfectly all across the delightfully dark rosewood fingerboard.

Unlike a lot of vintage acoustic guitars from this era, this example has abstained from a neck reset and still retains its original frets with plenty of life left in them. The action is medium to low and the guitar plays perfectly.

Comes with non original Gibson case.
