The Gibson Hummingbird Faded is a truly top-of-the-line experience. From playability to sound, Gibson makes guitars that are built to thrive in the limelight, and also built to last. Designed for an ultra-smooth, fast playing feel - the neck matches the back and sides and is made from mahogany. It features a round profile that will minimise any strain while facilitating a truly luxurious playing experience. The use of mahogany and Sitka spruce to build the body ensures a clear midrange with bite and warmth, as well as a tight low end that boasts a wonderful projection and resonance for days on end - especially thanks to the matching neck.
What's more, the rosewood fingerboard adds to this effect, holding firm through those more intense jamming sessions, as well as feeling and looking great. The best thing about the use of these premium tonewoods is that as they lose moisture and mature over time, they change how they sound. This means that you will be rewarded by tonal development over time and multiple uses.
The Gibson Hummingbird Faded is world renowned and widely considered one of the best guitars every built - it comes complete with a glorious vintage sound and all the perks of modern technology. It features a bright, natural aesthetic complemented by the striking pickguard design and single bar inlays, and comes with a gig bag included - this guitar really is the whole package.
It's also complete with a traditional belly-up ebony bridge which works in harmony with the TUSQ nut and Grover Mini Rotomatic tuning pegs to hold a comfortable action of the strings above the neck. The dreadnought shape looks fantastic and further draws focus to the low-mid range, as well as bringing a comfortable playability in your hands. What's more, they also guarantee a consistently stable tuning, so you can say goodbye to re-tuning between every song.
The Gibson Hummingbird Faded is equipped with a LR Baggs VTC on the soundhole which will allow you to take to the big stage with no complications or worries. As soon as you pick up this guitar and play, there won't be a thing about it you'd wish to change - least of all its natural sound. That's why Gibson were sure to include a pickup which stays true to the natural tone of your guitar no matter where you take it. You can plug into a PA or amplifier and achieve a glorious amplified sound that will capture the imagination of you and your audience.
