Epiphone 1960 Hummingbird Reissue

The 1960 Hummingbird Reissue is part of the Inspired by Gibson Custom Collection and is a faithful reproduction of the renowned Hummingbird, crafted in the Gibson Acoustic workshops in Bozeman, Montana, and offered at a significantly more accessible price.

Introduced in 1960, the Gibson Hummingbird™ was the first square-shoulder acoustic guitar in the Gibson catalog, ushering in a new era in music. An icon of versatility and style, it has been played by legendary artists such as Keith Richards, Brian Jones, Eric Church, J Mascis, Joe Bonamassa, Gillian Welch, Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Steve Wariner, Dan Auerbach, and many others. Its ability to produce clear and defined tones, whether with delicate fingerpicking, energetic strumming, or single-note solos, makes it ideal for any musical genre.

The top, made from artificially aged solid spruce, is paired with solid mahogany back and sides and a mahogany neck with a "Rounded" profile.

The rosewood fingerboard offers a natural and comfortable playability and is adorned with "Split Parallelograms" inlay made of mother-of-pearl.

To meet the needs of modern guitarists, the Epiphone 1960 Hummingbird Reissue is equipped with an L.R. Baggs™ Element Bronze VTC system featuring a piezo pickup under the saddle and an active preamp with volume and tone controls mounted in the soundhole, making it stage and studio ready.

Completing the features are elegant aesthetic details, including the Gibson-style “open book” headstock, the Traditional Belly bridge, and the famous pickguard embellished with engravings.
