Thanks for your help all. I had it appraised at Carter Vintage and it's now listed on Reverb. You were right in saying that the tobacco-burst was rare in 1963. https://reverb.com/ca/item/57718360-gibson-hummingbird-1963-tobacco-burst-rare

lovely! any idea on how much a rare hummingbird goes for friend?

sorry for the delay...been quite busy. I can't seem to upload the photo. here's a link to a photo....closeup of the pick guard : https://ibb.co/rk0DsVB

Thanks friend. I love the guitar. But still have no idea how much it's worth. I see old Hummingbirds ranging from 5k to 23k...

I believe so, I'm no expert. So does anyone know how much she is worth? Should I be getting an appraisal? The "tobacco-burst" rarity seems quite exciting. That photo is quite low resolution, but it is a gorgeous piece of instrument and sounds exquisite.

I don't remember much from what they said, other than it was a 1963 and that they had just finished getting it ready for the floor.

ksdaddy : the label isn't like that...here is a photo of the serial number inside (I posted a link to a photo seeing as I can't seem to file drop it in this thread) https://ibb.co/nLsHXg1

Here is a photo of it. I'll definitely check Reverb. But I haven't found one with these colors.

Good evening, I purchased a Gibson Hummingbird at the Chicago Music Exchange back in 2008 and am trying to figure out its origin & value. I believe it's a 1963, and it's absolutely stunning. It has a 6 digit serial number (121867) and it says "Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA" on the sticker inside. Can't find this number using the Guitar Dater Project website.Any help and/or evaluations are welcome.Thanks!
