Gibson Acoustic Hummingbird M Mahogany, Light Cherry Burst Overview
With the Hummingbird Modern Mahogany, Gibson have applied the same construction methods as used on the very first 1960 Hummingbird; a solid Sitka spruce top, mahogany back, sides and neck, and a rosewood fingerboard combine to produce a rich and varied tone from the modern, slim, square shoulder body - which also features a cutaway to enable easy high fret access.
The strong mid and treble tones that made the original Hummingbird famous are now also complimented by a lower tone - an enhancement procured by master design and first class materials. This guitar embraces and highlights a wide tonal palette to produce a versatile and charismatic instrument, which by way of an LR Baggs Element pickup system, is easily amplified without compromising tonal quality. A Gibson case is also included.
Handcrafted with the same time-tested build techniques as their most iconic models, each Gibson Acoustic is full of expression, character, and exquisite beauty - this new modern styled instrument is no different.
