Gibson Hummingbird Faded 2023 - Antique Natural
Gibson Hummingbird Faded 2023 - Antique Natural
Those innovative minds at Gibson are back with something new: the Faded Series, ideal for players who prefer a very low-gloss, matte finish. The Hummingbird Faded maintains the classic Hummingbird shape, woods, and details—including the iconic engraved pickguard—but with a unique twist. Instead of the traditional vintage or cherry sunburst gloss, it sports an ultra-thin, natural satin finish, showing off the Sitka spruce top and unstained mahogany back and sides.
The slim-taper mahogany neck features a rosewood fingerboard with mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays and a comfortable 24.75” scale, creating that signature Hummingbird feel with Gibson's bold, square-shouldered tone. It’s a fresh look, yet unmistakably Gibson in sound and craftsmanship.
Included: a Gibson hardshell case.
