Part of Gibson’s Greatest Hits Collection, this Gibson Acoustic Hummingbird Red Spruce packs all the aesthetic appeal of a classic ’bird with a distinctive, custom-spec song. Both of the Hummingbird’s traditional tonewoods — Sitka spruce and mahogany — have been swapped out with the richer, more powerful pairing of red spruce (more commonly known as Adirondack spruce) and rosewood. This decidedly non-traditional combo comes complete with Gibson’s traditional scalloped X-bracing, resulting in a sound that’s undeniably Hummingbird, only with superior projection, a more authoritative low end, and lush top-end overtones. Of course, you still get all the show-stopping cosmetic traits of a classic Hummingbird, including the model’s signature bird-adorned pickguard, split parallelogram inlays atop the bound rosewood fingerboard, and multi-ply body binding. And whether you’re a dedicated strummer or a flatpicking phenom, this Hummingbird’s Rounded-profile mahogany neck ensures ideal fretting-hand comfort. Sealed with a slick nitro lacquer finish and stage-bound LR Baggs VTC electronics, this Gibson Acoustic Hummingbird Red Spruce does Gibson’s Greatest Hits Collection proud with a potent blend of timeless style and unique square-shouldered sounds.
