This 1963 Gibson Hummingbird is a well-loved example of the company’s square-shouldered dreadnought, featuring a spruce top paired with mahogany back and sides and the model’s distinctive cherry sunburst finish. The guitar has benefited from several structural repairs over its lifetime, including several reglued braces, repaired center seam cracks with some localized overspray, and a replacement bridge plate, all contributing to its continued stability and usability. It has also received a professional refret and replacement nut, along with a replacement bridge. These updates allow the instrument to perform reliably while preserving its original character and visual appeal. The result is a structurally sound vintage Hummingbird that shows honest signs of maintenance consistent with decades of use.

Includes OHSC.
