littlejohnny Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Since theres always a nice discussion on this board when it comes to hummingbird pros / Hummingbirds and songwriters, I thought you guys will find this one interesting. I found it on my endless cruise through the inventory of german gibson dealers. Me thinks this is a bird, though it looks quite weird. http://www.session.de/GIBSON-Songwriter-Koa-2016.html?utm_source=criteo&utm_medium=cpc&utm_content=textlink&utm_campaign=feed_criteo&campaign=Criteo
J-200 Koa Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Obviously a Hummingbird. Wildwood has 5 of these on their website.
MissouriPicker Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Wicked-looking bird. I like the rustic and natural look of it. Several sweet Hummingbird models currently available, but for now I'm happy with mahogany.
E-minor7 Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Thanx for posting this, , , we have to say strrrange Bird. No doubt the ordinary square body-shape, not the Songwriter or Pro. Need to hear a Tube-clip before throwing the dice. But for now, I would have preferred a black or dark mono-chrome guard. The trad. flora/fauna gets kinda choked by the chocolate top. Have to give Bozeman credit for never standing still.

Yeah thanks for the info, seems to be a mistake of the website, since wildwood advertises them as Hummingbird Elite Koa, which seems pretty much in line with what it appears to be.
Bulldog86902 Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 I would go and try every guitar you like the look of,,there all good!
Stringbreaker Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Confirming, that is definitely a Hummingbird and not a Hummingbird Pro or Songwriter. Wow, that's a real looker!
fortyearspickn Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Obviously a Hummingbird. Wildwood has 5 of these on their website. Wowsers! a half dozen different Hummingbird variations on the species. And for the Koa Elite - $5K! The abalone fret markers really POP ! I prefer the traditional spruce and 'hog. But, the one with Koa b/s might be real nice. Kia is described by luthiers to sound a little brighter though - a cross between rosewood and mahogany. Certainly more attractive than either.
LPguitarman Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 That is not a Songwriter. Here is a Songwriter.(cutaway version)
