A Legend in a Stunning Finish

The Gibson Hummingbird is an icon, plain and simple. From the moment it was introduced in 1960, its square-shouldered dreadnought body became a staple for legends in rock, folk, and country. This pre-owned Hummingbird Standard, dressed in a gorgeous Wine Red gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, carries that legacy forward. It's an absolute cannon of a guitar, with a voice that's both powerful and sweet, ready for the stage, studio, or your favorite armchair.

Classic Tonewoods, Timeless Tone

The heart of the Hummingbird's sound comes from its classic pairing of a solid Sitka Spruce top with solid Mahogany back and sides. This combination delivers a beautifully balanced tone, with the spruce providing clarity and articulation, while the mahogany brings warmth, richness, and a strong midrange presence. Whether you're strumming big, open chords or picking out delicate melodies, this guitar has a dynamic range that responds to every nuance of your playing. The traditional hand-scalloped X-bracing ensures that the top resonates freely, creating a huge, open sound that just blooms.

Effortless Playability

A great acoustic should feel like an old friend, and this Hummingbird delivers. The Mahogany neck has a comfortable Rounded profile that feels substantial and familiar in your hand, perfect for long playing sessions. The smooth Indian Rosewood fingerboard, with its 12-inch radius and iconic Mother of Pearl Parallelogram inlays, makes for buttery-smooth fretting and bending. It's a neck that invites you to explore, from cowboy chords down low to intricate lead lines up high.

Ready for the Stage

This Hummingbird isn't just a stellar acoustic; it's a professional-grade stage instrument. It comes factory-equipped with an LR Baggs VTC undersaddle pickup and preamp system. The controls are discreetly mounted in the soundhole, preserving the guitar's classic look while giving you easy access to volume and tone shaping. The VTC system is renowned for its ability to translate the guitar's natural acoustic voice with warmth and accuracy, ensuring you sound just as good plugged in as you do unplugged.

- In business since 1976! Moore Music has been a premier brick-and-mortar guitar shop in Evansville, Indiana since shortly after opening in 1976. Founder, Pat Moore, instilled in his business the concept of old-school service that we build upon today. When the current owner, Brett Mulzer, took the store online as Moore Guitars in 2013, we quickly developed a reputation for honesty and integrity in all our interactions with our customers. That’s a prime reason why we’re the fastest-growing online guitar shop.

- Old School Customer Service: Nothing is more important than helping a customer even if we don’t make a sale. We believe that if we’re honest with you, and treat you right, you’ll be back.

- Our sales staff are all musicians! What’s more important than communication? We speak your language. Whether you’re a beginner or a professional player, we’ve been in your shoes. A lot of aspects of the guitar are intangible, and a non-player just can’t understand. It’s a guitar thing. But we can talk about tone and feel in the same language you use. We know what it means to love an instrument, and we want to help you find your new love.
