Gibson Hummingbird Standard Vintage Sunburst - discussion

Having just rounded the corner on its 61st year, the Gibson Hummingbird continues to soar as one of the most legendary acoustics of all time. The Gibson Hummingbird Standard puts classic tone, playability, and design into your hands. The Standard features a solid Sitka spruce top with mahogany back and sides for a stunning blend of punchy treble and midrange from the spruce top, held together with a rich low end from the mahogany back and sides — a tonal presentation that has won over countless rock legends from Keith Richards to Thom Yorke. A rounded "C"-profile neck with rosewood fingerboard offers impeccable playability and response, ideal for strumming big open first-position chords and picking out intricate leads up and down the neck. Also, an onboard LR Baggs VTC pickup system delivers beautiful amplified acoustic tone when you plug in. The many Hummingbird Standard owners can attest this is that rare acoustic that truly offers a unique playing experience along with one-of-a-kind tone.
