The Epiphone Hummingbird Studio brings the iconic 1960s classic into an affordable package, with premium Fishman electronics. This right-handed dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar features a solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides, and mahogany neck for a bold, balanced tone that only improves with age. Now equipped with a Fishman Sonitone preamp and Sonicore under-saddle pickup, the Hummingbird Studio delivers its signature woody sound on stage through any amplifier or PA system.

All-Solid Tonewoods Resonate for Decades

The Hummingbird Studio's solid spruce top, mahogany back and sides, and mahogany neck provide a resonant and complex tone that blossoms over time. Its spruce top opens up as it's played, enhancing rich overtones and a warm sustain. The mahogany body adds midrange punch and clarity. Together, these tonewoods produce the Hummingbird's famously throaty and well-balanced acoustic sound.

Shadow Electronics Amplify Natural Resonance

The Hummingbird Studio comes equipped with professional-grade Shadow electronics to amplify its all-acoustic tone. The Fishman Sonitone preamp features simple volume and tone controls to shape the sound, while the Sonicore under-saddle pickup accurately captures the guitar's natural resonance and nuanced dynamics. This plugged-in performance allows the Hummingbird Studio to shine on stage through any PA or acoustic amplifier.

Legendary Features and Timeless Style

Beyond its amplified acoustic tone, the Hummingbird Studio carries the iconic features that defined the 1960s original. These include the sloped "dovewing" headstock, split-parallelogram inlays, multi-ply body binding, and the distinct hummingbird pickguard artwork. A rosewood bridge, compensated saddle, and die-cast tuners provide lasting stability and intonation. The Hummingbird Studio's full dreadnought body and 1.69" nut width also deliver a familiar playing feel with roomy string spacing.

Roadworthy and Stage-Ready

As an acoustic-electric, the Hummingbird Studio is ideal for both acoustic and plugged-in performance. It includes a durable hardshell case for safe storage and transport. On stage or in the studio, the Hummingbird Studio provides legendary Epiphone tone and style with the power to perform.
