1974 Gibson Hummingbird – Vintage, All Original, Great Player

For sale is my beautiful 1974 Gibson Hummingbird. This is a beautiful vintage Gibson with the classic Hummingbird look and the warm, dry, woody tone that only comes from a well-played 50-year-old guitar.

The guitar retains its original finish, original bridge, original bridge plate, original Grover tuners, original pickguard, and original hardware.

Condition notes:

* Professionally repaired crack between the end of the fingerboard and the pickguard area. Repair is stable.

* Larger impact damage on the back was structurally repaired in the past and is solid. It could benefit from cosmetic touch-up if desired.

* A Plate Mate has been installed to protect the original bridge plate from string-ball wear. The original bridge plate remains intact and in excellent condition.

* There is some residue/discoloration on portions of the binding that I have not attempted to remove.

* General dings, scratches, and play wear consistent with a vintage instrument.

The guitar plays beautifully with comfortable action, strong projection, and excellent tuning stability. It has the rich, open sound that vintage Gibson acoustics are known for.

Non original hardshell case included.
