The historical Hummingbird was the first Square Shoulder Dreadnought in 1960. The lovingly decorated pickguard and the typical Vintage Sunburst lacquering still have the charm of the wild sixties.
The fully massive Dreadnought in classic wood combination produces a warm and pronounced powerful sound thanks to a Sitka spruce top, paired with frames and mahogany back. Warm basses, assertive mids and clear highs are the hallmarks of this legendary guitar. This makes this Square shoulder ideal for a powerful vocal accompaniment with strumming and flatpicking. The optical decorations of the pickguard, the mother-of-pearl inlays in the fingerboard and headstock make it Hummingbird a real piece of jewellery. With the extremely natural and warm sounding L.R. Baggs VTC pickup, the up-and-coming guitarist is directly stage capable. Hardly any other guitar has shaped the last 40 years of Western guitar history as much as the incomparable Hummingbird .

Gibson Hummingbird VS Vintage SunburstI have owned a Hummingbird copy for 46 years, but took the plunge, wore the cost and ordered the real thing. From the first strum the quality of this beauty is overwhelming. Deep rich tones, but ready also for some hammering without losing any tonal structure. The build is classic and beautiful and overall I am thrilled to own the real thing at last
Excellent service. Placed the order on Thursday and the guitar was delivered the following Monday. Absolutely beautiful guitar with a lovely tone. I could not be happier, well done Music Store.
