Description
Introduced in 1960 as Gibson's first square-shouldered dreadnought, the Hummingbird arrived at the dawn of a new era in music, and was rapidly embraced by the prime movers on the scene.
Built with a Thermally Aged sitka spruce top, the Hummingbird Vintage reflects the appearance and performance of those early icons.
Finished with Gibson's new Thin Finish plus a hand rubbed VOS process.
Bold and brash, the chest-thumping sound of this big-bodied acoustic was designed to inspire from the moment you pick it up.
The exclusive slope-shouldered Redondo body shape has a rich, commanding voice that fills any room.
The fully-painted solid Sitka spruce top, solid mahogany sides and back, as well as matching painted 6-in-line headstock and maple binding and rosette, give it a shot of electrifying attitude.
Dynamic, unique and unconventional—like today’s guitarists—the Redondo Special refuses to be bound by the past.
