Here’s a well cared for 2012 Gibson Hummingbird True Vintage in excellent condition, classic sound, lovely “Cali Girl” case (brown with pink lining), gold tulip tuners and a VOS finish. Hard to find a lefty like this in such nice condition. Has aged and opened up nicely. Unmistakeable Gibson tone.
Introduced in 1960 as Gibson’s first square shouldered acoustic, the Hummingbird was embraced by everyone from Keith Richards to Gram Parsons and quickly became a staple in folk, country and rock. I love the short 24.75 scale on this guitar, the bass is big and round and the guitar has that unmistakable Gibson sound. Sitka top, mahogany back and sides, rosewood bridge and fretboard, parallelogram block inlays, and a gorgeous heritage sunburst. Built in Bozeman, Montana. A classic.
