Here for sale we have a Gibson Hummingbird Studio Walnut square shoulder dreadnought electro-acoustic guitar in Gloss Natural finish. Built in the USA in 2021, this guitar features an all-solid construction comprising a Sitka Spruce top, Walnut back and sides, Mahogany neck and 20 fret Walnut fingerboard with matching bridge. This guitar is fitted with a set of Nickel Grover Rotomatic tuning machines, and a Tusq nut and compensated saddle. A Fishman Sonitone undersaddle piezo pickup is installed, and is wired to discreet sound hole mounted master volume and tone controls.
The Mahogany neck plays very well, with the Advanced Response profile feeling quick and comfortable in the hand and providing ergonomic thumb positioning in all registers. The Walnut fingerboard is pleasant to the touch and adds a real sense of luxury to the playing experience which is further enhanced by the attractive Mother Of Pearl Split Parallelogram inlays. The 16" radius provides a nicely flat and consistent playing surface right the way up the register which is highly practical for a wide range of genres and playing styles. The timeless square shoulder dreadnought body design fills the arms nicely, and provides a lively and responsive playing experience with a sound that can really be felt.
The acoustic voice of the Hummingbird is clear and punchy, with a warm low end, tight mids and a crisp, articulate top end, all without sounding overly bright. This combination of balanced sounds comes together to create a deep, rich and full-bodied tone that is highly responsive to your playing. The Sitka Spruce top projects very well and offers a wide dynamic range. Playing gently produces warm, mellow sounds with the intimate tone needed for those quiet moments. Putting some snap and power behind your right hand rewards you with the powerful booming tones this guitar is capable of. The Fishman Sonitone undersaddle piezo pickup faithfully conveys the acoustic voice of the instrument and adds the versatility required for live and recording situations.

The rear top edge shows very light scuffing. Very light scratching to the front face can be seen under direct light, as is common with high gloss finishes.
