2022 Gibson Custom Shop Hummingbird Acoustic Electric Guitar Viper Blue Quilted Maple, Near-Mint w/ Case
2022 Gibson Custom Shop Hummingbird Acoustic Electric Guitar Viper Blue Quilted Maple, Near-Mint w/ Case
With the distinctive heavily figured maple back and sides, this square shoulder dreadnought has much in common with Gibson’s Dove, with a Sitka spruce top with hand-scalloped X-bracing, a mahogany neck, and bound rosewood fingerboard. This Hummingbird is smooth and round-sounding, with plenty of dreadnought muscle and projection. The lows are broad and rich, taking full advantage of the warmth and midrange focus inherent in walnut as a tonewood. The plain strings yield great treble chime and sparkle with a percussive chop, and this Hummingbird is a rewarding strummer, yielding great overall balance. The factory-installed L.R. Baggs Element VTC pickup provides the option of amplification for on-stage functionality via an active undersaddle transducer. Weighing 4lbs 15oz, this Hummingbird has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 12-54 bronze strings and easy-playing action.
