Description

The Gibson Hummingbird Standard Rosewood Electro Acoustic takes the legendary square-shouldered Hummingbird and infuses it with the depth, richness and harmonic sparkle of a solid rosewood body. Finished in a stunning Rosewood Burst and loaded with the exclusive Baggs HiFi DNA pickup system, it is a beautifully expressive songwriter’s tool that moves effortlessly from warm, supportive rhythm work to articulate, melodic lead lines on stage and in the studio. With a solid Sitka spruce top, solid rosewood back and sides and scalloped X-bracing, this Hummingbird delivers a dynamic, resonant acoustic voice with enhanced low-end presence and shimmering overtones, while still retaining the model’s famed balance and clarity. A comfortable mahogany neck with a Round profile, bound rosewood fretboard and classic mother-of-pearl detailing completes the unmistakable Hummingbird feel, while the discreet Baggs HiFi DNA system captures every nuance of your playing with impressive realism when amplified. Iconic Hummingbird Feel with Rosewood Depth The Hummingbird Standard Rosewood keeps everything players love about the original square-shouldered design but adds the tonal character of solid rosewood back and sides. You get that familiar, inspiring Hummingbird response for first-position chords, fingerpicking and lead work, now with a richer low end and more complex harmonics. It is an ideal choice if you want the classic Hummingbird vibe with extra depth and sophistication in your sound. Responsive Solid Sitka Spruce Top and Scalloped Bracing A solid Sitka spruce top sits at the heart of the guitar, chosen for its balance of strength, projection and sensitivity. Paired with scalloped X-bracing, it responds quickly to your touch, from delicate fingerstyle to full-blooded strumming. The top moves freely, giving you a lively, open acoustic tone that feels immediate and expressive under the fingers, making it easy to control dynamics and phrasing. Baggs HiFi DNA Pickup for Natural Amplified Tone The Gibson-exclusive Baggs HiFi DNA system uses two lightweight bridge-plate sensors and individually voiced preamps to deliver a full, natural amplified sound. It is designed to let the guitar’s own acoustic character shine through, with excellent gain-before-feedback performance comparable to an under-saddle pickup. Soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls keep adjustments close at hand but out of sight from the audience, so your stage setup stays clean and uncluttered. Premium Playability and Classic Aesthetic The mahogany neck with a Round profile offers an inviting, familiar feel that suits a wide range of playing styles. A bound Indian rosewood fretboard with a 12-inch radius and 20 standard frets provides a smooth playing surface for chords and single-note lines alike. Gold Grover Rotomatic tuners, a TUSQ nut, TUSQ saddle and TUSQ bridge pins work together for stable tuning and consistent intonation, while the gloss nitrocellulose finish, multi-ply binding and iconic Hummingbird pickguard artwork deliver the timeless look that has made this model a stage favourite for decades. Key Features Solid Rosewood Back and Sides – The solid rosewood body delivers a richer low-end response and enhanced harmonic complexity, giving your chords more depth and your fingerstyle playing extra shimmer, while still maintaining the Hummingbird’s renowned tonal balance.
