Gibson Hummingbird Standard

   This Gibson Hummingbird was originally brought in with a minor headstock crack that we repaired, this crack does not affect playability and should be stable now that repairs are complete. Here's a quote from the Luthier:  "The headstock crack was minor and more of  the "smiley" crack variety. Glued, clamped, sealed, sanded, buffed, touched up." The repair is difficult to spot even under direct lighting with no obvious discoloration. The pictures included are post repair.

   This 2020 Gibson Hummingbird is used and shows a few signs of wear, minimal orange peel and some light finish marks that can be seen under certain light but is overall in great shape. Unique to this guitar, is a gorgeous flame to the back of the neck. This guitar is very balanced and warm sounding, great for a variety of styles. Weighs in at under 5lbs and includes the original hardshell case. Here's more info from Gibson:

 "  Much of the Hummingbird’s appeal lies in its versatility. No matter how you attack this flat-top, it pumps out rich, deep tones, and is equally at home strumming first-position chords as it is taking the spotlight for picking lead lines. Its spacious mahogany body and sweet, select Sitka Spruce top are more than capable of nailing down the rhythm in the hands of a rock and roll sideman, or accompanying the most nuanced performance under the fingers of today’s alternative singer-songwriter.
