Description
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, right? Better yet, if it ain’t broke, upgrade it. That’s what Gibson’s done with the incredible Hummingbird. A guitar already coveted by players for its ability to do just about anything, the Hummingbird Deluxe 2019 possesses all of the full, round sound of the standard Hummingbird, hand-built with rosewood back and sides and sitka spruce top with traditional hand-scalloped X-bracing, as well as colored rope binding, gold fret wire, graduated Mother-of-Pearl parallelogram inlays, gold hardware and an LR Baggs VTC. It’s the best of the best. Forget about the rest.
About Gibson Montana:
Luthier Orville Gibson founded the Gibson Mandolin-Guitar Mfg. Co. Ltd. in Kalamazoo, MI in 1902. Its original aim was to make mandolins and mandolin-family instruments. Over the last 100-plus years, Gibson Brands, Inc., as it is now known, has since evolved into the world’s premier manufacturer of semi-hollow and hollow body electric guitars, as well as a celebrated portfolio of innovative solid-body and acoustic models.
“Some people hear their own inner voices with great clearness. And they live by what they hear. Such people become crazy… or they become legend.” So wrote Montana author Jim Harrison, perhaps about the master luthiers of Gibson Montana, which produces all of Gibson’s acoustic guitars.
