Description:
Developed in collaboration with the Gibson Custom team in Bozeman, Montana, the Epiphone Hummingbird Deluxe EC draws inspiration from the classic Hummingbird, reimagining it in a more modern design with a cutaway.
Introduced in 1960, the Gibson Hummingbird™ was the first square-shoulder acoustic guitar in the Gibson catalog, marking the beginning of a new era in music. An icon of versatility and style, it has been played by legendary artists such as Keith Richards, Brian Jones, Eric Church, J Mascis, Joe Bonamassa, Gillian Welch, Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Steve Wariner, Dan Auerbach, and many others. Its ability to produce clear and defined tones, whether through delicate fingerpicking, energetic strumming, or single-note solos, makes it ideal for any musical genre.
The top, crafted from artificially aged solid spruce, is paired with solid rosewood back and sides, and features a mahogany neck with a Rounded "C" profile.
The ebony fingerboard provides a natural and comfortable playing experience, enhanced by "Split Parallelograms" inlays made of mother-of-pearl.
To meet the needs of modern guitarists, the Epiphone 1960 Hummingbird Reissue is equipped with an L.R. Baggs™ Element Bronze VTC system, featuring a piezo pickup under the saddle and an active preamp with volume and tone controls mounted in the soundhole, making it stage and studio ready.
Completing the package are refined aesthetic details, including the Gibson-style “open book” headstock, Reverse Belly made from ebony, and the iconic pickguard decorated with intricate engravings.
