The Hummingbird is one of Gibson's most iconic acoustic guitars and has been used by a wide range of artists since its introduction in 1960. The Epiphone version gives you a piece of that classic style and tone at a fraction of the cost and with the benefit of built-in electronics.
Construction
The mahogany back and sides on the Hummingbird Pro give it a warm tone with great low and midrange emphasis. The mahogany is complemented by a solid spruce top which has well-balanced tonal character. The Hummingbird has the classic square-shouldered dreadnought body shape which is known for its balance of versatility and volume. The combination of tonewoods and body shape make the Hummingbird Pro a true all-rounder that can handle anything from soft fingerpicking to energetic strumming.
Built-In Electronics
For those looking for a stage guitar, the Hummingbird Pro comes ready to perform right out of the box. This guitar features a built-in Fishman Sonicore pickup with Sonitone preamp so you can just plug in and play!
