Iconic Hummingbird Voice With Stage Ready Confidence
The Gibson Hummingbird Original is one of those acoustics you hear once and never forget. Big square shoulder chime, warm mahogany depth, and that unmistakable Hummingbird punch that just blooms under your fingers.
This Antique Natural beauty gives you the classic recipe that made the Hummingbird a legend, built with modern consistency so it will take real world gigs and sessions in stride. Sitka spruce over mahogany, gloss nitro finish, and traditional hand scalloped X bracing deliver that wide, open voice that records like a dream and fills a room without breaking a sweat.
Spruce And Mahogany For That Classic Gibson Shimmer
The Sitka spruce top is the engine of this guitar. It is responsive and lively, so light fingerstyle has glassy detail and hard strumming never collapses or gets muddy.
Mahogany back and sides bring the warmth and focus. You get a woody low end, clear mids, and a sweet top that sits right where a vocal needs it to. Traditional hand scalloped X bracing lets the whole box move, so chords bloom and single notes have that nice piano like fundamental.
The gloss nitrocellulose lacquer is thin and musical. It lets the body breathe and age gracefully instead of sealing it up in plastic. Multi ply binding with that double antiqued look frames everything in true vintage Gibson style.
Neck That Feels Like Home
The rounded mahogany neck hits that sweet spot between substantial and comfortable. It fills the hand just enough to keep your wrist relaxed on long gigs, but never feels like a baseball bat.
The 12 inch rosewood fingerboard radius keeps cowboy chords easy down low and makes lead work up top smooth and controlled. Twenty standard frets and mother of pearl parallelogram inlays give you the classic Hummingbird look while staying clean and precise all the way up the neck.
A compound dovetail neck to body joint ties it all together, so notes ring with confidence and tuning stays solid when you dig in.
LR Baggs VTC: Plug In And Go
When it is time to hit the stage, the LR Baggs VTC under saddle system keeps everything sounding like your guitar, not a plastic quack machine. It tracks your dynamics closely, so soft touches stay intimate and big choruses still feel natural and open.
Simple volume and tone controls let you shape your sound on the fly without diving into menus or fighting with the soundboard. Run it straight into a PA, an acoustic amp, or your interface, and you get a warm, present voice that sits in the mix with very little EQ.
Boutique Details On A Legendary Workhorse
This Hummingbird Original is dressed up with gold Gotoh Keystone tuners that hold tune rock solid and look right at home against the Antique Natural finish. Bone nut and saddle plus Tus bridge pins keep the tone clear and the intonation true all the way up the neck.
The .060 Hummingbird pickguard and Hummingbird truss rod cover give you the iconic look that has been on countless records. Under the hood, the traditional belly up bridge anchors the top for great transfer and sustain.
Out of the case, you are looking at a featherweight 5.5 lb guitar that you can wear for three sets without thinking about it. It ships in a hardshell case and includes the Gibson accessory kit, so you are dialed from day one.
