SOLD 2017 Gibson Hummingbird Vintage VOS in Heritage Cherry Burst TV £2800

Dumodal

I am selling my beautiful Gibson Hummingbird Vintage VOS, these hummingbirds had a torrefied Sitka spruce top and VOS treatment so you can see the tuners are slightly aged, and the burst colour is absolutely beautiful more like an amber burst to imitate an aged cherry hummingbird. The guitar is in excellent condition, with only a few light playing scratches but really hard to photograph, the case and the guitar still smell like vanilla, the frets are in top condition, and the sound is just glorious, that hummingbird boom, this is one of the best acoustic I have ever played but right now I'm playing more my J200 and I think this guitar deserves more playing.

The Lifton case is in great condition, CoA, Key chain and stickers are included. These are highly regarded hummingbirds and it's the equivalent of the Fixed bridge offering Gibson does now, but I have tried those and this one is miles better. No electronics as this is the Vintage model. The neck is between slim taper and rounded which I find great and comfortable.

It was set up recently and has a new set of D'Addario XS strings with a low action.

I am not looking for trades, I am not posting the guitar as it is a big risk for such a beautiful instrument.

Bank transfer and collection in Kingston upon Thames.

Thank you so much, its really a great guitar, and I agree I find the Hummingbird more versatile than the J200 but for some reason I am more used to the J200 sound! I cant have them both unfortunately

Thank you, Its an amazing guitar, some days I am tempted to withdrawn and create an Onlyfans to keep with my GAS habits.
