Product Description

The Legend, Reimagined

Talk about an icon. The Hummingbird has been the go-to acoustic for rock gods, folk heroes, and singer-songwriters since the ’60s. This pre-owned Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Hummingbird is the real deal—capturing that same timeless vibe and tone without the vintage price tag. Built with a solid Spruce top and solid Mahogany back and sides, this guitar has the resonance and tonal depth you can feel in your chest. It’s got that classic warm, woody voice that sits perfectly in a mix or shines on its own.

Solid Wood Construction

This isn’t your average layered-wood acoustic. The solid Spruce top provides all the clarity and articulation you need for detailed fingerpicking, while the solid Mahogany back and sides deliver a powerful, warm low-end and rich midrange that’s perfect for strumming chords. The result is a guitar that’s incredibly dynamic and just gets better with age—the more you play it, the more the wood opens up and its voice matures.

Stage-Ready Electronics

Ready to plug in? The onboard Fishman S-Core pickup and Presys VT preamp system make it easy to take that great acoustic tone to the stage or studio. The soundhole-mounted controls are discreet and intuitive, allowing you to quickly dial in your volume and tone without missing a beat. It’s a clean, natural-sounding system that faithfully translates the guitar’s acoustic character.

Classic Feel & Style

The Mahogany neck is carved into a comfortable Rounded C profile that feels instantly familiar, while the 12-inch radius Rosewood fingerboard is a joy to play. Add in the iconic split parallelogram inlays, multi-ply binding, and that unforgettable pickguard, and you’ve got a guitar that looks every bit as good as it sounds. This one’s in Very Good Condition, ready for its next chapter.

Anatomy of a Tone Machine

Anatomy of a Tone Machine

Perfect for: Singer-Songwriter • Folk • Country • Rock

Tone

  • Acoustically rich and warm with a strong midrange from the solid Mahogany and Spruce construction.
  • Plugged-in tone is natural and clear, thanks to the well-regarded Fishman Presys VT system.
  • Excellent note separation for chordal work, with a sweet top-end that doesn't get harsh.
  • Responds beautifully to a light touch for fingerstyle but has plenty of headroom for aggressive strumming.

Playing Feel

  • The classic Hummingbird dreadnought shape feels substantial and comfortable, offering powerful projection.
  • The Rounded C neck profile is a perfect middle-ground—substantial enough for grip but comfortable for chording.
  • Effortless playability up and down the neck with a smooth Rosewood fingerboard and standard frets.
  • A fantastic all-night strummer that won't fight you, whether you're on the couch or on the stage.

Versatility

  • Excels at everything from delicate folk to driving rock rhythms.
  • Provides a great platform for acoustic effects like reverb, delay, and chorus.
  • The solid wood construction makes it a fantastic recording guitar, both miked and direct.
  • Sits perfectly in a dense band mix without getting lost, providing body and rhythmic drive.

We get it. Buying a guitar you haven’t played is a big decision. You need to know it’s going to feel right, sound right, and inspire you the second you open the case. We put together the questions we’d be asking if we were in your shoes—the real-world stuff that specs alone can’t answer. If there’s anything else you’re wondering about, just give us a call.

This series brings all the key features of the classic Gibson Hummingbird to a more accessible price point. You’re getting the solid wood construction, the iconic visual appointments, and the correct scale length and neck profile, which are crucial for capturing that legendary tone and feel.
It sounds fantastic. Fishman is a leader in acoustic amplification, and the S-Core/Presys VT combo is designed to sound natural and resist feedback. It’s a reliable, great-sounding system for open mic nights, church gigs, or full-band shows.
Of course. Every guitar gets our full Player-Perfect™ setup, but tell us your preferred string gauge and action at checkout, and we’ll dial it in exactly to your spec before it leaves the shop.
This guitar is covered by our 14-Day Return Policy. If you’re not completely inspired by it, just let us know. We’ll make it right.
If you order before 3 PM CST on a weekday, it ships the same day. We’ll get it into your hands fast with free, insured 2-3 day shipping.
