Gibson Hummingbird Artist
Used! Acoustic / Electric Guitar
Made in the USA!
Premium, All-solid wood construction!
Used! Just in on consignment from one of our regular clients. The Gibson Hummingbird Artist is a square shoulder dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar handcrafted in the USA. This Gibson Montana acoustic guitar features a washed heritage cherry lacquer finish, solid premium Sitka Spruce top and solid Mahogany back and sides. A round mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard is also standard and comes with beautiful mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays. This is a great sounding Gibson based on the classic, vintage Hummingbird but with slightly more understated cosmetic appointments. Thanks to an L.R. Baggs Element under-saddle transducer and built-in preamp the tone is excellent plugged-in or unplugged. An ingenious sound hole mounted volume control keeps the look clean as well. Binding is 6-ply on top and 4-ply on the back. Gold keystone tuners, a mother-of-pearl crown inlay on the headstock, tortoise pickguard and a traditional Gibson rosewood bridge complete the look. A Gibson premium hardshell case is included.
Like all our used / vintage gear this has been tested for functionality and priced to move! Sold as-is. What you see is what you get. This guitar is excellent condition – no serious issues, repairs, dings, dents, etc… Just a solid, clean, well-cared for instrument. A minute scuff or two, and what looks like the outline of tape residue on the headstock (as if someone taped over the Gibson logo and inlay with scotch tape, then didn’t clean all the residue off when it was removed) are all that keeps it from being “mint / immaculate”. And those two aforementioned issues are too subtle to show up in photographs. I tried but can’t get it to appear.
