Since its introduction, it has become one of the most popular acoustic guitars ever made and has been the choice of countless players across generations and genres. Much of the Hummingbird’s appeal lies in 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 picking lead lines. The Hummingbird Standard is more than capable of nailing down the rhythm in the hands of a rock ’n’ roll sideman or accompanying the most nuanced performance under the fingers of today’s alternative singer-songwriter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gibson Hummingbird Standard is handcrafted with care in Bozeman, Montana, by Gibson’s expert acoustic luthiers and features a square shoulder body crafted using solid mahogany for the back and sides. The top is solid Sitka spruce and is reinforced with scalloped X-bracing. Both the top and back are framed with multi-ply binding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hummingbird Standard’s mahogany neck is attached to the body with a compound dovetail neck-to-body joint using hot hide glue and features a comfortable Rounded profile. The neck is equipped with a bound rosewood fretboard with 20 standard frets and mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays. The belly-up bridge is also crafted from rosewood. This ’bird has a TUSQ® nut, saddle, and bridge pins. The smooth, self-lubricating TUSQ nut, in partnership with high-quality Grover® Rotomatic® tuners, ensures solid tuning stability. The Hummingbird Standard features the iconic Hummingbird graphics on the pickguard, which is one of the design elements that have made this model instantly recognizable, even to many non-guitarists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hummingbird has long been a favorite of performing and recording musicians, so the Hummingbird Standard comes craftory-equipped with L.R. Baggs® VTC electronics, which feature an under-saddle piezo pickup and active preamp. The volume and tone controls are discreetly mounted at the edge of the soundhole, making them readily accessible to the player while remaining all but invisible to the audience. The inclusion of high-quality electronics means the Hummingbird Standard is stage studio-ready from the moment you take it out of the included hardshell case. The Hummingbird Standard is available in both right and left-handed versions. Isn’t it time you discovered for yourself why so many players love the Hummingbird?
