Description

Epiphone Hummingbird Studio Acoustic Electric Guitar

The Epiphone Hummingbird Studio Acoustic Electric guitar brings the legendary country/rock “Hummingbird” into the 21st century. With the new Shadow ePerformer preamp and Shadow NanoFlex pickup system, you can rest assured it’ll sound awesome plugged in too!

First introduced in 1960, the square shouldered Hummingbird quickly became a classic thanks to Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones. Keith used a Hummingbird for rhythm on early Stones hits like “Satisfaction,” “Play With Fire,” and “Under My Thumb”. There are also many classic photographs of Richards using a Hummingbird on sessions for Exile on Main Street, Goat’s Head Soup, and Sticky Fingers. Today, the Hummingbird is still a go-to acoustic for rockers like Noel Gallagher, Sheryl Crow, and Kid Rock when they need a rhythm guitar with smooth action and superb “woody” tone that’s full of character.
