Made in Bozeman, Montana in 1997, this Early 60s Hummingbird comes from Gibson's Historic Acoustic Line, produced as a recreation of the classic early-1960s Hummingbird. It features a solid spruce top, solid mahogany back and sides, rosewood fingerboard and bridge, mother-of-pearl parallelogram inlays, nickel hardware and a 24.75 inch scale length, finished in Heritage Cherry.
This is a genuine Yamano-imported Japanese-market example, originally supplied in Japan through Yamano Music, Gibsons highly regarded long-time Japanese distributor. Yamano-era Gibson instruments have developed a strong following among collectors, and this example has particularly good provenance, retaining its original Yamano warranty card identifying the guitar as EARLY 60S HB HC. The serial number 91127049 matches both the guitar and original Gibson factory paperwork, while the Yamano warranty card is dated July 1997.
Presented in excellent condition for its age and supplied with the original Gibson hard case, factory paperwork, Yamano documentation and Gibson soundhole humidifier. An exceptionally well-preserved and unusually complete Yamano-market example of Gibsons late-90s Historic Acoustic Line.
