2014 Limited Edition Hummingbird Recording Artist Acoustic-Electric Guitar
false falseWe're sorry-this item is unavailable.
Contact our experts for a recommendation of great alternatives. Call us at 800-449-9128.
Overview
Limited edition squareshoulder model with narrow neck and hide glue construction for better resonance.
A very unique piece in Gibson limited edition series offerings, the Hummingbird Recording Artist is a hybrid of the best squareshoulder models with a narrow ˜60s-style neck for rich tonal range and easy playability.
Gibson produced a handful of these unique models at the beginning of the century attracting artists and collectors. Those who are introduced to the Recording Artist covet them. The warm tone produced by the solid flamed koa in this limited run compliments the natural beauty of this highly-prized tonewood. As the name suggests, it is equipped with an L.R. Baggs Element VTC pickup for stage performance or studio recording.
Dovetail neck-to-body joint, hand-fitted and secured with hide glue ensures unequalled resonance transfer from strings to body
Radiused body for projection and clarity
Nitrocellulose lacquer finish allows the tone to mature with age
100% American made, handcrafted in Bozeman, Montana
