Introduced in 1960, the Hummingbird™ was Gibson’s first acoustic model to feature a "square-shoulder" design. Since its launch, it has become one of the most popular acoustic guitars of all time and the instrument of choice for countless musicians across generations and genres.
Much of the Hummingbird’s appeal lies in its versatility. No matter how you play this "flat-top" guitar, it delivers a rich, deep tone; it performs just as well for chord work in the lower frets as it does when stepping into the spotlight with melodic lead lines. The Hummingbird Standard excels equally as a rhythm guitar for rock 'n' roll musicians and as accompaniment for the nuanced performances of today’s alternative singer-songwriters.
