Late Night Fun With Guitars
Last night, I went to visit GC with my dad, seeking the Hummingbird; seeing if it lived up to its expectations. When I held it in my lap, it fitted right in with my body. When I played it, it sounded so melodic, even with the original strings on it (though it would be better to change the strings to some D'Addarios). The bass was not too low or high, and the neck was easy to slide up on. The price is the best for this wonderful Epiphone. I'd suggest this guitar for anyone that can play.
The color in the pictures is way too light. I fell in love with the sunburst, even though it usually isn't my color.

Excellent
I owned a Gibson Hummingbird back in the late 60's.
Walked into Guitar Center to look at acoustic guitars, played several, and was blown away when I picked up and played this guitar. Great mid-range, sweet tone, and a beautiful guitar to look at.
Couldn't believe it was on sale for $299.00.
I consider this to be one of those "deals of a lifetime". Bought it..L-O-V-E it!

Why buy a Martin?
I bought my hummingbird in Tucson, AZ.about six months ago. I wasn't sure what brand or model I was going to buy. I played a Martin D-28 and D-18 and then the salesman said to save my money and try the Hummingbird. I was blown away! The feel of the neck was perfect and the tone had good bass and crisp highs. It is proof positive that you do not have to buy an $1800.00 Martin in order to get a great guitar. I plan on buying a Dove Ebony model next.

'Like It Better Than Gibson's
I was at a local guitar shop recently looking for my next purchase. I was considering the EL-00 because I thought a parlor guitar would be a nice addition to my arsenal. Sadly, they did not carry it. However, they had both the Gibson and Epiphone Hummingbird, which I was eager to try ever since I saw it on BrightEyes' "Four Winds" video. I first played the Gibson, and was rather unimpressed with it. It featured a puffy-sticker decal as it's pickguard (which was shifted out of place--they will be returning it) and it just didn't sound special. It was somewhat the antithesis of the higher-end Yamahas; mellow, but weak. Not impressed, I nearly passed up playing the Epiphone, but being a fan of the company and of their archtops, I decided to give it a go.
This is my guitar. This is the guitar I will take with me to the ends of the earth. I played it for maybe four minutes before telling them to keep a hold of it for me while I replenish my funds.
The Epiphone Hummingbird rings with such powerful midranges; soft as a hummingbird's flight and sweet as the nectar it drinks. The guitar itself is a beauty; none of that puffy-sticker pickguard the Gibson had. This is a quality guitar, and you won't be disappointed by it.

Holy Crap!
This is a very excelent guitar. I went to the local guitar center and I played several acc. guitars. This was far my most favorite. Sure the martins are more expensive, but i personly say that this guitar is better than a martin. I DEFINATLY would not buy the gibson unless ur rich and have money to blow, or if u are givin it :P. It is worth the $300 I love it! crisp tones throughout the neck everywere! Just so you no, it does have a solid spruce top (not shown on the features) I was totally suprised by how nice this guitar is and only for 300 bucks!!!! Definatly a great buy
