Epiphone Limited Edition Hummingbird Artist Acoustic Guitar  

Beautiful finish and tone.

No this is not the real Gibson Hummingbird, but it is a solid remake of it. Guitar plays pretty and stays in tune very well. Overall, I found it to be worth the $300 bucks. It isn't a gig guitar but it's fun to play with friends or pick on. Might be a decent guitar for someone to start out on who doesn't want to break the bank. Easy on fingers, as well.

Overall, decent guitar. Worth the money.

this bird was read to go right out of the box, sound great, easy to play. i have several taylors, wanted a kick around guitar for camping and fishing trips, its agood guitar for the money. and great service musicians friend//////////////.

I bought this one after being very satisfied with the J-200 Jumbo Artist that Epi is also selling. Whereas I am very happy with my Jumbo Artists I am downright thrilled with the Hummingbird Artist. No fancy pickguard or bridge but certainly has all it takes to be a good guitar with an unexpected bonus- this guitar sounds WAY better than I expected.

I bought the cherry finish. It is beautiful. Very good quality. Again, you're getting more than you're paying for.

This guitar is worth more than it's selling price, IMO.

Far exceeds my expectations. Looks really good and really well-built. And it sounds GREAT. I am just amazed at how well it sounds. I can't tell you whether mine is 'special' in any way but I can tell you that it sounds like a very expensive guitar. I own over 50 guitars so I have a few to compare it with.

This is a square shoulder dreadnought which features a mahogany back and sides and a split parrallelogram mother of pearl fretboard and inlays. Everything you would expect from a hummingbird. The downside is that it doesn't come with the iconic decorative pickguard with a hummingbird design you would see on the regular epiphone hummingbird or gibson. But you could always purchase the pickguard off ebay like I did. It looks fantastic! If you're buying this guitar because of the faded cherry then great choice. I personally don't like the cherry sunburst on the other epiphone because it's too bright and harsh on the eyes. I simply love the faded cherry way better.

When the package arrived at my house and I opened the box. All I could smell was fresh wood. It was like they made it fresh and packaged it right away. I picked it up and played it right away. Of course it was out of tuned, but man! The strings were new and the action felt great. I couldn't find anything wrong with it! Absolutely love it.    

For the price, this guitar sounds and looks like a thousand dollar guitar. You can't go wrong with that. Plays and sounds great for the price you're paying. which a bargain.

Overall, I absolutely love this guitar! I've always wanted a Gibson Hummingbird because of the color of it which the Epiphone doesn't have. which is vintage cherry. but the faded cherry comes close to it! I recommend you get this guitar now because it's only for a limited time. Get it before it's gone!

It's a pretty little guitar but very light.  I have about 10 accoustics and this guitar is noticably lighter than any of the others.  Has ok tone.

Low E string is set up with too low "action" and buzzes against frets.  Sadly middle D is in tune "open" but goes out of tune as I move up neck so bar type chords are dissappointing.  Corner of pick guard lifted slightly.  Paint seems good.

This is the 2nd one recieved - the first was received with a crack in top.

An Epiphone J-45 from several years ago seems better in quality although I did have that one set up by a specialist as action was too high.

Will see if I can tolerate playing a guitar that is out of tune for bar chords.  Bought this as a replacement for a National I got for my birthday in 1969 which is no longer tuneable due to neck issue, as a travelling guitar.

I'm hoping I did not make a mistake buying a second Epiphone.
