Handcrafted Acoustic Excellence: Gibson Hummingbird Special

First introduced in 1960, the Gibson Hummingbird™ is one of the most distinctive and well-loved acoustic guitars ever made. Handcrafted with care in Bozeman, Montana, by Gibson’s expert acoustic luthiers, the new Gibson Hummingbird Special offers players a true USA-built Gibson acoustic at a very attractive price. Ready for the stage and studio right out of the case, you can find yours today in a gorgeous Satin Wine Red finish at Haggerty's Music.

Classic Tonewoods and Concert Comfort

Built for incredible tone and unparalleled playing comfort, this acoustic-electric workhorse delivers a warm, balanced sound with excellent dynamic range perfect for any style of music.

• Premium Tonewoods: Features a traditional square-shouldered body constructed from genuine solid mahogany for the back and sides, paired with a solid Sitka spruce top reinforced with traditional scalloped X-bracing.
• Concert Depth Body: Slightly thinner than a standard Hummingbird body, giving it a leaner, tighter bass response that sits perfectly in a mix while making it exceptionally comfortable to hold.
• Stunning Finish: Finished in a smooth, breathable satin nitrocellulose lacquer that lets the wood resonate freely.

Smooth Playability and Iconic Looks

Every detail of the neck and fretboard is designed for effortless performance and classic Gibson aesthetics.

• Traditional Neck Joint: The utile neck is attached to the body with a compound dovetail joint affixed with hot hide glue for maximum resonance transfer.
• Comfortable Profile: Features a comfortable Rounded neck profile capped with a 12" radius rosewood fretboard.
• Iconic Details: Fitted with 20 standard frets and adorned with Gibson's instantly recognizable pearloid parallelogram inlays.

Stage-Ready Electronics and Hardware

Take your sound from the living room to the stage without missing a beat.

• L.R. Baggs™ Electronics: Comes factory-equipped with an L.R. Baggs Element Bronze under-saddle piezo pickup and active preamp, featuring an easily accessible soundhole-mounted volume control.
• Rock-Solid Hardware: High-quality Grover® Rotomatic® tuners ensure perfect tuning stability, while the traditional belly-up rosewood bridge is paired with a TUSQ® saddle, nut, and bridge pins for enhanced sustain.
• Classic Pickguard: Features a simplified version of the world-famous Hummingbird pickguard graphics.
