ManuBig Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Dear all Please find below photos of my last guitar, bought to a shop based in Alabama via Reverb (I live in France). A dream comes true! I wanted an acoustic Gibson for a long time, but I never found the good one: I have owned a 1957 LG1, a J45 reissue 60's, a 2000 J100 (the same that the Gibson played by Amos Lee... I finally found this one and bought it without trying it but I don't regret! It sounds amazing. Obviously, the Rolling Stones' sound. At your disposal for any question!

Dave F Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 If it sounds as good as it looks, it's a keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozz Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 I love all the silking in that top. Really beautiful. Congrats and enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-minor7 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 This Bird has a lot of character. It's a proud guitar. You should spoils us all with a recording. Have fun'n'good times, , , welcomz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
62burst Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Beautiful. As Bozz said, the silking on that top is excellent- one of the best Hummingbirds I ever played had similar wood selection. And speaking of wood selection- fine looking bridge, and a fretboard such as the one on your Hummingbird is getting quite hard to find. Enjoy, and as E-minor7 said, we would love to hear a little sample. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jinder Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Wonderful guitar! Those early '90s Birds are fantastic. I have a 1990 which is just about the best acoustic I've ever owned. Truly stellar guitars, enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManuBig Posted December 14, 2018 Author Share Posted December 14, 2018 OK. By popular demand, I will try to record a little moment of music with my Hummy, I promise! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-1854Me Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 What a beautiful top (and lovely burst) that Hummingbird has! I think I can hear it playing 'Angie'. Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aliasphobias Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 A real beauty! One of my favorite 'bursts too. That longer scale gives them a little more volume than the 24 3/4" IMO but some still retain the short scale sweetness somehow. I have had a few of them from the early '90s (one that I owned twice!). Should have kept it but didn't. Enjoy! Looking forward to that sound sample. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
