The Versatile Hummingbird Standard, Now With a Rosewood Body – The Gibson Hummingbird Standard Rosewood Acoustic Electric Guitar in Rosewood Burst
The Gibson Hummingbird™ is legendary for its versatility; it is equally at home strumming first-position chords and delivering soaring lead lines. We are pleased to release a new version of the Hummingbird Standard with rosewood back and sides that has all of the playing and sonic characteristics you’d expect from the world-renowned square-shouldered acoustic but with slightly fuller bass response and overtone complexity due to the rosewood body. The Hummingbird Standard’s mahogany neck has a comfortable rounded profile and mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays. Also available as left-handed models, these ‘birds have a TUSQ® nut, saddle, and bridge pins, gold Grover® Rotomatic® tuners, the iconic Hummingbird graphics on the pickguards, and are equipped with L.R. Baggs™ VTC electronics, so they’re ready to plug in on stage or in the studio. A Gibson hardshell case is included
