Part of the Artisan Series, the Hummingbird Elegant Koa is a carefully crafted instrument with aesthetically refined features, making it as pleasing to the eye as it is to the ear. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hummingbird Elegant Koa features koa back and sides. Koa is a beautiful-looking and sonically bright tonewood, similar in some ways to maple, but it will warm up with time and use, delivering a tone with the high-end sparkle of maple that blooms with added warmth and a nice, balanced sound overall. The koa back also features a three-rope marquetry strip down the center. The koa back and sides are paired with a AAA Sitka spruce top. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hummingbird Elegant Koa has a mahogany neck with a comfortable Round profile. The neck is topped with a bound rosewood fretboard that features 20 standard frets and beautiful abalone split parallelogram inlays. The headstock also features the Gibson logo and crown, both also inlaid in abalone, along with a TUSQ® nut and gold-plated Grover® Rotomatic® tuning machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe belly-up bridge is crafted from rosewood and adorned with abalone dot inlays. The saddle and bridge pins are also TUSQ. Hummingbird pickguards are notable for their detailed graphic design, which features flowers, a butterfly, and a hummingbird. The Hummingbird Elegant Koa takes things to the next level with a tortoise-shell-colored guard featuring silver and gold-foil stamps, which gives the pickguard a beautiful, colorful iridescence when viewed at varying angles. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hummingbird Elegant Koa comes craftory-equipped with high-quality L.R. Baggs™ VTC electronics, with an under-saddle Element pickup paired with an internal preamp for natural acoustic guitar tone when plugged in on stage or in the studio. The volume and tone controls are conveniently mounted at the edge of the soundhole, where they’re quick and easy for the player to access while remaining all but invisible to the audience. It comes packaged in a Gibson Custom hardshell case to help keep it safe in storage and transport. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst introduced in 1960, the Hummingbird was the first Gibson square-shoulder dreadnought acoustic model. It arrived at the dawn of a new musical era and was quickly embraced by musicians across genres. One of the most widely recognized and popular acoustic guitar models of all time, the Hummingbird has been the choice of countless players across generations, in no small part due to its versatility; no matter how you attack this flat-top, it pumps out rich, deep tones and is equally at home strumming first-position chords as it is taking the spotlight for leads and solos. Here is your opportunity to own a Hummingbird with elegant appointments and the rich tone and beauty of koa. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSerial #: 20426014\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBack: Koa\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBinding: Single-Ply Top and Back\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBody Finish: Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBody Shape: Hummingbird\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide: Koa\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTop: Sitka Spruce\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFingerboard Material: Rosewood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFingerboard Radius: 12 in. | 304.8 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrets: Standard\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInlays: Split-Parallelogram, Abalone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJoint: Dovetail\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeck Material: Mahogany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNut Material: TUSQ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProfile: Rounded C\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eScale Length: 628.7mm \/ 24.75in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eControls: Soundhole Mounted Volume and Tone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOutput Jack: 1\/4\" Endpin Jack\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePreamp: LR Baggs VTC\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnder Saddle Pickup: LR Baggs VTC\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBridge: Belly Up, Rosewood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBridge Pins: TUSQ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePickguard: Hummingbird, Tortoiseshell\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTuner Plating: Gold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTuning Machines: Grover Rotomatic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAccessories: Gibson Custom Certificate Of Authenticity\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eModel: CSSSHBEKHB\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCase: Hardshell\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWe are proud to include a full professional setup to factory spec before delivering your new Gibson.
