ohhh!thank you,because i thought that it was the special edition in 2008 only..from the data i found,gibson produce very less of this guitar..
There was a thread about this awhile ago.
Here's a link. Apparently, the only difference in the Special Edition and other 2008 Hummingbird MCs was that the color of the sunburst. Gibson, or some dealer, just decided to promote an option that was always available by introducing a "Special Edition". (As a result, I expect that there were more VSB Hummingbirds than usual built that year. So it seems like they should be less collectable -- but who knows?) If yours is a Hummingbird Standard in VSB rather than cherry, you got what amounts to the Special Edition, no matter when it was built.
