The Inimitable Hummingbird Meets Its Sonic Future

The G-Bird represents the glorious legacy of the Gibson Hummingbird™ colliding with modern sonic enhancement through the Gibson Player Port™. The Player Port is an original Gibson concept from the early 1960s that has since been refined by our acoustic luthier team to deliver revolutionary sonic improvement and add a new dimension to the G-Bird’s sound. The Gibson Player Port allows you to hear the guitar like you've never heard it before—the same way your audience hears it—maximizing its sonic impact for an immersive playing and listening experience.

The G-Bird is part of the Generation™ Collection, and like all models in this collection, it’s made in Bozeman, MT, by the same highly skilled craftspeople who make all Gibson acoustics. It features a stunning solid Sitka spruce top and solid walnut back and sides for the ultimate in crisp, resonant tone. This square-shoulder dreadnought delivers all the rich low end and well-balanced mids and highs the original Hummingbird is famous for. The TUSQ® nut and saddle, along with chrome Grover® Mini Rotomatic® tuners, deliver solid tuning stability so you can spend more time playing instead of tuning. The utile neck, with its easy-playing Advanced Response neck profile, is so comfortable you won’t want to put it down. The G-Bird also comes equipped with an LR Baggs™ Element Bronze pickup system, so it will always sound as good to your audience as it does to you. A gig bag is included.
