Epiphone 1960 Hummingbird Reissue - Heritage Cherry Sunburst with Hardshell Case

The Epiphone 1960 Hummingbird Reissue: Iconic Tone Meets Timeless Beauty

Vintage-Inspired Craftsmanship

The Epiphone 1960 Hummingbird Reissue is a stunning collaboration with Gibson Custom, faithfully recreating the first-year Hummingbirds that took the music world by storm. Its thermally aged solid spruce top, paired with solid mahogany back and sides, delivers the warm, resonant voice that has made this square-shouldered classic a studio and stage favorite for decades. Traditional scalloped X-bracing from quarter-sawn solid spruce ensures the top sings with clarity and projection.

Playability that Inspires

A one-piece, thermally aged mahogany neck with a comfortable Rounded profile invites hours of effortless playing. The bound Indian rosewood fretboard offers 20 frets adorned with mother-of-pearl split parallelogram inlays, perfectly blending visual elegance with smooth performance. The 24.75" scale length and 1.74" nut width provide an ideal feel for both intricate fingerpicking and full-strum rhythms.

Attention to Detail

From its multi-ply top and back binding to the legendary Hummingbird-shaped pickguard with engraved artwork, this reissue captures the spirit of the original. The traditional belly-up rosewood bridge is fitted with a compensated bone saddle, and the bone nut and bridge pins further enhance sustain and tonal richness. Gold-plated Epiphone Deluxe tuners with green Keystone buttons keep tuning rock solid while adding a touch of vintage glamour.

Modern Performance Readiness

Equipped with an L.R. Baggs Element Bronze VTC under-saddle pickup and soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls, the 1960 Hummingbird Reissue is ready for both live performances and studio sessions. Whether plugged in or purely acoustic, it maintains its articulate, well-balanced tone across genres.

Protected in Style

This model comes with a Red Line-inspired hardshell case featuring Inspired by Gibson Custom graphics, ensuring your investment stays safe in transit. Complete with all original case candy, it’s ready for players who demand both tradition and reliability.
