The Hummingbird Refined For Real-World Players
If you love that iconic Hummingbird voice but want something a little more focused, a little easier to live with, this Studio Rosewood is the sweet spot. All solid woods, square-shouldered power, a slightly deeper body, and a smoother 24.75 inch scale give you big, blooming acoustic tone without the boom and mud that can bury your mix.
All-Solid Spruce And Rosewood That Actually Sings
The recipe is classic for a reason: solid Sitka spruce on top with solid rosewood back and sides. The spruce top gives you shimmer, articulation, and that glassy high end that stays musical even when you dig in. The rosewood body brings the low-end thump, piano-like mids, and a rich bloom on sustained chords.
Because the body is full depth and just a touch deeper than a typical dread, the whole guitar feels like a tuned speaker cabinet. You get more low-end response, more sustain, and a fullness that wraps around your voice instead of fighting it.
Square-Shouldered Power With Real Control
Dreadnoughts are famous for volume, but they can get woofy fast. The Hummingbird’s square shoulder shape is like choosing the right cab for your amp: it tightens the bottom, clarifies the mids, and keeps every note defined when you strum hard. Real talk, this is the difference between a guitar that works in the living room and one that still sounds clean and clear under a vocal mic.
Traditional hand-scalloped X-bracing lets the top move, so you still get that satisfying air-moving punch. The satin nitrocellulose finish keeps things feeling alive and open instead of choked under thick poly.
Shorter Scale, Smoother Feel
The 24.75 inch scale length is the same as a Les Paul, which is rare on acoustics and a huge part of why this guitar feels so forgiving. Softer string tension at pitch means easier fretting, smoother bends, and less fight when you capo or play long sets. Fingerstyle feels buttery, and big first-position chords do not punish your left hand.
The Advanced Response utile neck profile fills your hand in a really natural way. It is fast without feeling skinny, and supportive without feeling clubby. Paired with a rosewood fingerboard, 16 inch radius, and 20 standard frets, it is a neck you stop thinking about so you can focus on the music.
L.R. Baggs Element Bronze: Plug In And Go
When it is time to plug in, the L.R. Baggs Element Bronze system has you covered. The under-saddle piezo captures the warmth and body of the guitar while keeping the highs clear and usable, not brittle. It is the kind of pickup that takes pedals and EQ well, and it sits in a mix without a ton of tweaking.
A simple soundhole-mounted volume control keeps the top clean visually and lets you ride your level on the fly. The endpin jack keeps the look classy and stage ready, whether you are running straight into a PA or a full acoustic rig.
Player-First Details, Stage And Studio Ready
Grover Rotomatic tuners keep tuning rock solid, and the rosewood belly-up bridge with Tusq saddle and pins transfers vibration efficiently so every note feels alive under your right hand. The satin nitro finish gives it that already broken-in feel, like a guitar you have had for years instead of something fresh out of the case.
This Hummingbird Studio Rosewood ships in a modern hardshell case, so it is ready for the road or the studio on day one. You are getting a hand-built, all-solid Gibson that covers everything from songwriter sessions to worship stages to miced-up recording dates.
