A legend reborn in striking Purple Burst, the Gibson Hummingbird Standard remains one of the most iconic acoustic guitars ever made. Introduced in 1960 as Gibson’s first square-shouldered dreadnought, the Hummingbird quickly became a favorite of artists throughout eras, ranging from Keith Richards and Joni Mitchell to Sheryl Crow and Dave Grohl. Known for its rich tone, dynamic versatility, and unmistakable visual flair, the Hummingbird blends vintage heritage with modern performance in a way few guitars can.

The solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides offer a warm, balanced voice with impressive projection — perfect for strumming open chords, delicate fingerpicking, or taking the lead in a mix. The rounded mahogany neck, paired with a smooth Indian rosewood fretboard and classic mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays, delivers a comfortable, broken-in feel right out of the case. And thanks to LR Baggs VTC electronics, the Hummingbird is ready for the stage or studio, offering natural, articulate amplified sound with simple soundhole-mounted controls.

Whether you're chasing the golden age of folk, adding vintage color to your singer-songwriter set, or just want an acoustic that’s as bold as it is beautiful, the Hummingbird Standard in Purple Burst is a showstopper. Available now at Haggerty’s Music, this beautiful guitar comes complete with a Gibson hardshell case.
