Overview

Intricate detailing and AAA koa body wood make this a Hummingbird like no other.

The Hummingbird from Gibson is the classic cornerstone of their acoustic line and this Limited Edition Custom Koa model features hand-inlaid and hand engraved hummingbirds on the headstock, fingerboard, pickguard, and bridge, making this a truly custom piece. The tonewood combination of Sitka spruce and koa allows for a bright but balanced sound true to the Hummingbird's reputation as a player's dream. Other appointments on this Hummingbird include engraved gold Grover Rotomatic tuners; an abalone rosette and binding; hand-engraved iconic hummingbirds and butterflies on the pickguard, bridge, fingerboard, and headstock; beautiful AAA koa back and sides; multi-ply binding with abalone; and hot hide glue construction.
