About This Gibson Hummingbird Acoustic Guitar

1960 Hummingbird Light Aged, Heritage Cherry Sunburst

Introduced in 1960 as Gibson’s first square shoulder, the Hummingbird arrived at the dawn of an era in music that was rapidly embraced by the prime movers on the scene.

Built with a thermally aged Sitka spruce top, the 1960 Hummingbird reflects the appearance and performance of those early Gibson icons.

It features Light Aging by the skilled artisans of the Murphy Lab.

The Murphy Lab Light Aged finish treatment, paired with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of light play wear, giving it the unique character, vibe, and feel of an original example from the Gibson Acoustic Guitar Golden Era.
