2014 Gibson Hummingbird – £2499

NEW ARRIVAL  The Hummingbird is one of Gibson’s most iconic acoustic guitars, and visually one of the most striking. The beautifully faded cherry sunburst finish blending into an amber centre, contrasting beautifully with the unmistakable Hummingbird pickguard, and the Mahogany back and sides. This guitar has all the unmistakable characteristics of one of Gibson’s flagship dreadnoughts, which makes them sound so familiar. When you start playing it’s like taking a step back in time listening so many famous recordings – deep and rich, with a sparkle in the trebles. The bound neck makes it feel very easy to play, and the action is very comfortable. At 21 years old, the sound is really starting to mature. The guitar is in excellent condition, with very little visible playwear. It has an active undersaddle pickup fitted with volume control mounted inside the soundhole, and comes in it’s original hard case.
