description

The classic Hummingbird style acoustic guitar first introduced at the legendary Gibson and Epiphone factory in Kalamazoo in 1962 became one of the first acoustic guitars to become a recognized rock and roll icon. Now, both beginners and professionals can enjoy the classic sound of The Hummingbird Pro plugged in with the Epiphone - Shadow™ ePerformer™ Preamp System

The Hummingbird PRO Acoustic/Electric has a beautiful Faded Cherry Sunburst color finish and features a Solid Spruce top with 5-ply white and black binding. The body back and sides are made from laminated Mahogany for a punchy, bright tone. The hard Mahogany 24.72″ scale neck has a slim taper “D” profile fixed solidly to the body using a Dovetail joint and Titebond™ glue.

Shadow Pickup System

Epiphone and Shadow Germany have worked together for over a decade at perfecting ways to amplify an acoustic guitar on stage. The Hummingbird PRO is just one of many Epiphone guitars that feature a cutting edge pickup system that can handle any size gig and still produce an "acoustic" sound. The Hummingbird PRO's controls for the Shadow™ ePerformer™ Preamp are on the upper bout and include controls for Master Volume, Treble and Bass EQ, Mute, and a Dynamics control adjusted via a frequency curve

The Hummingbird Pro is an incredible guitar for the money and a great knockoff of the 51-year-old Gibson® original.

This guitar is in near-mint condition with virtually no signs of playwear. The Grover® tuning machine buttons show signs of light oxidation, or we would earnestly rate this guitar as ‘mint’. A good fitting custom-ordered black hardshell case is included.
