Bert Murdock Music in Orem, Utah, is proud to offer this beautiful Gibson Hummingbird Original in Heritage Cherry Sunburst, handcrafted by Gibson Acoustic in Bozeman, Montana.
First introduced in 1960, the Gibson Hummingbird became one of the most recognizable acoustic guitars in music history. With its square-shoulder body, elaborate hummingbird-and-flowers pickguard, and unmistakable Cherry Sunburst finish, it has been a favorite of generations of recording artists, songwriters, and performers.
This Hummingbird Original captures the appearance and feel of that legendary design while delivering the craftsmanship and performance expected from a modern American-made Gibson acoustic.
THIS ACTUAL GUITAR WEIGHS JUST 4 POUNDS, 7 OUNCES.
Classic Gibson acoustic tone
The Hummingbird Original features a solid Sitka spruce top paired with solid mahogany back and sides.
This combination produces the warm, balanced character associated with the classic Hummingbird, with clear trebles, focused bass, and excellent response for both strumming and fingerstyle playing.
Traditional hand-scalloped X-bracing contributes to the guitar's natural resonance and expressive response.
The 24.75-inch scale length offers a slightly softer string feel than longer-scale Gibson acoustics, making the Hummingbird especially comfortable for rhythm playing, vocal accompaniment, and songwriting.
Heritage Cherry Sunburst styling
Few acoustic guitars have a look as distinctive as the Gibson Hummingbird.
The beautiful Heritage Cherry Sunburst gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish is complemented by the classic engraved hummingbird-and-flowers pickguard, multi-ply body binding, gold Gotoh Keystone tuners, and elegant mother-of-pearl parallelogram fingerboard inlays.
A comfortable Rounded-profile mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard complete this timeless acoustic guitar.
LR Baggs VTC electronics
This instrument features factory-installed LR Baggs VTC undersaddle electronics with convenient soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls.
The system provides reliable amplified performance for live playing and recording while maintaining the Hummingbird's traditional appearance.
Whether you're performing onstage, recording acoustic tracks, or playing at home, this Hummingbird Original offers classic Gibson sound and unmistakable visual appeal.
