Gibson Hummingbird Standard Southwestern Turquoise

Gibson Hummingbird Standard for Expressive Acoustic Guitar Sounds!

The Gibson Hummingbird Standard is an acoustic guitar for players seeking a distinctive acoustic voice, strong projection and high versatility. With its classic Hummingbird body shape, solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides, it delivers a warm, deep yet well-defined tone that convinces whether you play powerful strums or precise fingerpicking.

Classic Gibson Acoustic Tone

The construction of this flat-top acoustic blends the quick response of a solid Sitka spruce top with the rich, balanced core character of a mahogany body. The result is a sound with punchy lows, present mids and a pleasing high-end definition. The Hummingbird Standard feels at home in many styles and suits singer-songwriters, folk, pop, rock and modern acoustic playing alike.

Playing Comfort With Traditional Substance

The mahogany neck with a rounded profile delivers a familiar, comfortable feel and supports both rhythmic chord work in the lower positions and melodic lead picking. The Indian rosewood fingerboard offers a pleasant touch and is adorned with classic mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays. With a 24.75" scale, 20 frets and a 43.82 mm nut width, the instrument strikes a balanced compromise between playability, string tension and control.

Construction and Hardware

The Gibson Hummingbird Standard features a reverse-belly rosewood bridge. TUSQ at the nut, saddle and bridge pins promotes clean vibration transfer and a stable setup. The hardware is rounded out by nickel Grover Rotomatic tuners, which together with the low-friction nut ensure reliable tuning stability. The compound dovetail neck joint further contributes to resonance, sustain and a lively response.

Stage- and Studio-Ready

For direct use onstage or in the recording setup, the guitar is fitted with an LR Baggs VTC undersaddle system. Controls are mounted in the soundhole for volume and tone, so you can adjust the amplified sound quickly and intuitively. That makes this Gibson acoustic not only an expressive solo instrument but also a reliable partner in band contexts, the studio or acoustic live sessions.

Traditional Design With Strong Visual Identity

Characteristic visual touches include the multi-layer binding and the iconic pickguard with the Hummingbird graphic. Combined with the classic body design, this creates an acoustic guitar that stands out not only sonically but visually among high-end steel-string models. The included case protects the instrument reliably during transport and storage.
