Available at Acoustic Centre Melbourne

Includes Hardshell Case

The Gibson Hummingbird Standard 'Vintage Cherry Sunburst' Acoustic Electric Guitar is one of the most iconic acoustics of all time, renowned for its timeless design, exceptional tone, and unmatched playability. Featuring a solid Sitka spruce top, this guitar delivers a remarkable blend of punchy treble and midrange, perfectly balanced with the rich low end from its solid mahogany back and sides. This tonal balance has made the Hummingbird a favorite of legendary rock musicians such as Keith Richards and Thom Yorke. A rounded C-profile neck with a rosewood fingerboard provides a comfortable, smooth playing experience, ideal for both intricate picking and strumming. The onboard LR Baggs VTC pickup system ensures your acoustic tone is beautifully amplified when plugged in, making this guitar an excellent choice for both stage and studio performance.

The Gibson Hummingbird Standard stands out not only for its visual impact with the classic square-shoulder dreadnought body and stunning Vintage Cherry Sunburst finish, but also for its exceptional tonal versatility. Whether you're playing wide-open strummed chords or intricate fingerpicking, the Hummingbird delivers a sound that works beautifully across genres such as country, bluegrass, folk, and rock. Thanks to its solid construction and premium materials, the tone of this guitar continues to improve with age, giving you years of rich, expressive sound.

Whether you’re looking for a guitar for acoustic performance, recording, or just to enjoy at home, the Gibson Hummingbird Standard offers unmatched tone, exceptional build quality, and the versatility needed for any musical style.
