With the Epiphone 1960 Hummingbird Reissue, the US manufacturer pays tribute to one of the most iconic acoustic guitars in music history. Based on the original model from 1960, which is played by greats such as Keith Richards, this acoustic guitar was designed as a detailed reissue of the first Square Shoulder Dreadnought. Developed in close cooperation with Gibson Custom , it combines classic design with contemporary technology. The solid body in traditional dreadnought style produces an impressive sound volume with deep resonance and tonal presence. For use on stage, the model is equipped with the L. R. Baggs Element Bronze VTC system, which precisely transmits the natural sound. A stylish Inspired by Gibson case protects the instrument reliably and also cuts a strong figure visually.

The Epiphone 1960 Hummingbird Reissue impresses with a sound that harmoniously combines tradition and modern sound requirements. Its solid spruce top, thermally refined (torrefied), ensures a quick response and a well-rehearsed sound character. Just as if it had been played for decades. The Scalloped X bracing supports an open, voluminous tone with clear highs and powerful low mids. Solid mahoganysides and back provide additional depth, tonal balance and projection. This acoustic base makes the guitar a versatile tool that is ideal for precise fingerstyle playing as well as dynamic strumming.

The finely crafted mahoganyneckwith its pleasantly round profile fits snugly in the hand and provides a natural playing feel with vintage flair. Thanks to the shortened scale length of 628.7 mm, chords can be picked effortlessly and the strings strummed with ease. In addition, the fine rosewoodfingerboard with contrasting Inlays and 20 neatly set frets offers precise playability, while a 44.2 mm wide bone nut supports clean intonation. The playing feel is complemented by high-quality details such as the compensated bone bridge inlay and the gold-plated Epiphone Deluxe keystone tuners for clean tuning and a flawless playing experience.

For use on stage and in the studio, the Epiphone 1960 Hummingbird Reissue is equipped with the proven L. R. Baggs Element Bronze VTC system. This pickup system transmits the characteristic sound of the guitar with a high level of detail and dynamic range, from subtle nuances to powerful chords. The volume and tone controls discreetly built into the sound hole allow the sound to be shaped directly without disturbing the classic appearance of the guitar. Musicians benefit from a professional solution that delivers a convincing sound and remains visually discreet.

The guitar is also a true visual masterpiece that immediately catches the eye and lingers in the memory. The noble Heritage Cherry Sunburst finish gives the guitar a luminous look with vintage flair and timeless elegance. The iconic Hummingbird pickguard, artfully decorated with hummingbird and flower motifs, is not only a striking design element, but also an expression of musical history and personality. On the fretboard, the classic split parallelogram inlays made of mother-of-pearl set stylish accents, while the headstock in the famous Gibson Open Book Profile with the lettering Inspired by Gibson impressively emphasizes the connection to the great tradition.
