Solid Spruce Top and Versatile Cutaway Design

The Hummingbird Studio EC’s classic tone begins with a solid spruce top—an essential tonewood known for its dynamic range and resonance. Layered mahogany back and sides add warmth and clarity, giving the guitar its signature depth and balance. Its square-shoulder dreadnought body delivers that full, commanding Hummingbird voice, while the cutaway design provides smooth access to higher frets for expressive leads and extended chord voicings. With multi-ply top and back binding enhancing both durability and classic appeal, this modern reimagining of the legendary Hummingbird offers vintage tone and feel with modern playability.

Rounded C Mahogany Neck and Smooth-Playing Rosewood Fingerboard

Designed for comfort and control, the mahogany neck features Epiphone’s Rounded C profile—an approachable shape that feels instantly familiar in any player’s hands. The glued-in dovetail joint ensures excellent resonance transfer between the neck and body, while the 24.75" scale length provides a slightly slinkier string tension for easy fretting and bending. The bound rosewood fingerboard adds warmth and visual sophistication, complete with pearloid split-parallelogram inlays that evoke Gibson’s classic heritage. Whether strumming open chords or playing intricate fingerstyle passages, the Hummingbird Studio EC’s neck makes every note feel effortless.

Fishman Electronics for Reliable Stage Performance

With onboard Fishman Presys II electronics, the Hummingbird Studio EC delivers rich, natural-sounding amplified tone that’s ready for the stage or studio. Its S-Core undersaddle pickup faithfully captures the guitar’s acoustic character, while the side-mounted controls provide precise adjustment of volume, bass, treble and phase. A convenient built-in tuner keeps you pitch-perfect in any environment, and the discreet design maintains the guitar’s classic aesthetic. Whether you’re performing live or recording direct, the Presys II system ensures the Hummingbird Studio EC sounds as inspiring plugged in as it does unplugged.

A tortoiseshell pickguard adorned with the iconic Hummingbird artwork, split-parallelogram inlays and antique ivory-and-black binding all contribute to its unmistakable look. Premium Grover Rotomatic tuners provide rock-solid stability, while the belly-up rosewood bridge ensures consistent intonation. The classic Kalamazoo-style headstock, inlaid with the Epiphone logo and Gibson crown, proudly nods to its heritage.
