With a combination of premium sitka spruce and walnut, the Hummingbird Studio 2019 offers a rich, clear sound that will only get better with age. In addition, you can achieve a broad dynamic range with plenty of sustain and clear harmonics. Its premium sitka spruce top generates a versatile tone that develops a rich character throughout its life. This allows you to achieve a wide variety of genres and playing styles from country and pop to rock and blues. Additionally, the beautiful sitka spruce top is accompanied by walnut back and sides, delivering a strong, clear, fundamental. Furthermore, walnut sonically offers a warm, earthy sound with the overtone depth of rosewood and the clarity of mahogany. A unique sound of premium quality - perfect for numerous playing styles.
The Hummingbird Studio 2019 projects an enormous acoustic voice and maintains overall tonal balance. The Hummingbird's square shoulders deliver a superb bass response due to the sound having more room to reverberate around the body. In addition, when you attack the flat-top with a more aggressive strumming pattern, the sound just gets bigger and bigger. You can achieve numerous genres and techniques with ease including blues, rock, pop, country, to country-licks and flat-picking lead lines. It can be the heart of any great melody.
Constructed from mahogany, the Hummingbird's neck offers a rich, resonant sound with a quick, dynamic response. Mahogany's sonic-footprint falls on the warmer end of the tonal spectrum, whilst its nature allows it to respond superbly to numerous playing styles and techniques. Additionally, the mahogany neck features an advanced response profile, which has a flatter fingerboard radius, allowing you to achieve string bends with ease. The smooth playing neck is topped with a walnut fingerboard that not only offers a pleasing aesthetic but provides a balanced, unique earthy tone. Furthermore, the fingerboard is graced with Gibson's classic mother of pearl parallelogram inlays.
The Gibson Hummingbird Studio 2019 comes equipped with the popular VTC pickup from LR Baggs - perfect for professionals. The revolutionary electronics from LR Baggs are designed to capture the same dynamics of a guitar that has been mic'd up in a studio environment. This high-quality system features a low-profile undersaddle pickup that's proven more stable and durable than many standard ribbon-type pickups. With an unobtrusive and removable volume/tone control mounted just within the soundhole, the VTC and the Hummingbird together are an unmistakable combination. Additionally, the VTC features rotary controls for both volume and tone shaping, allowing you to easily tweak your amplified tone. Overall, the L.R. VTC captures the magic of your guitar's natural acoustic tone, projecting the sound faithfully and beautifully.
As with many of Gibson's acoustic range, the Hummingbird Studio comes fitted with traditional hand scalloped X-bracing. This specific type of bracing structure consists of two braces forming an 'X' shape across the soundboard which not only enhances the sound and offers a well-balanced tone, but also provides a reinforced stable and durable structure. Furthermore, with traditional hand scalloped X-bracing the Hummingbird's tone is enhanced beautifully, providing superior projection and volume for a truly expressive sound.
