Gibson Hummingbird Standard - Vintage Cherry Sunburst
Since its 1960 debut, along with the space race, the Gibson Hummingbird has carried melodies across genres, generations, and galaxies. Now in its Standard form, this square-shouldered legend continues to deliver the warm, balanced tone and unmistakable aesthetic that made it a star.
With mahogany back and sides, a Sitka spruce top, and that unmistakable Vintage Cherry Sunburst, the Hummingbird Standard remains a symbol of songwriting spirit and sonic flight. Whether you're grounded on Earth or orbiting inspiration, this is the guitar that gets you there.
The Hummingbird Standard delivers that signature Gibson tone: rich lows, focused mids, and sweet, singing highs. It responds beautifully to both fingerstyle and aggressive strumming, making it a go-to for players across the sonic spectrum.
