The Gibson Hummingbird brought a subtle new body style and a bold new look to Gibson’s dreadnought family. The Hummingbird was Gibson’s first 16″ wide dreadnought-style guitar with the extra wide upper bout, known as the square shouldered body shape. To emphasize the importance of the new model, Gibson outfitted the original Hummingbird with such eye-catching features as a cherry sunburst finish – the first on a Gibson flat-top – double parallelogram fingerboard inlays, multi-layered binding, and a modernized pickguard engraved with hummingbird and blossoms. As discriminating guitarists immediately discovered, underneath the Hummingbird’s flashy ornamentation is a solid, high quality guitar. This guitar is mint, unplayed shape, rated at 10/10. All original and free from any breaks, crack or repairs. Included with this guitar is an Original Hard-Shell Case and a complimentary sample of Fret-Not, our preferred fretboard cleaner, check it out at fretnot.net! Thank you for considering this exceptional instrument from Lovies Guitars.
