Gibson Acoustic Hummingbird, Vintage Cherry Sunburst Overview
Gibson Acoustic Hummingbird, Vintage Cherry Sunburst Overview by GAK.
Much of the Hummingbird’s appeal lies in its versatility. However 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. Its spacious square-shoulder solid Mahogany body and sweet, select solid Sitka Spruce top are more than capable of nailing down the rhythm in the hands of a rock and roll sideman, or accompanying the most nuanced performance under the fingers of today’s alternative singer-songwriter. It really is the guitar that does it all!
