Body and Tonewoods: The Epiphone IGMTHUM-ACH Hummingbird features a solid Sitka spruce top paired with solid mahogany back and sides. This combination of tonewoods delivers a balanced sound with bright highs and warm lows, ideal for various playing styles.
Neck and Fingerboard: The mahogany neck has a rounded “C” profile, providing comfort and ease of play. The laurel fingerboard with a 12-inch radius and 20 medium jumbo frets enhances playability, making it suitable for both chords and lead playing.

Hardware: Gold Epiphone Deluxe tuners offer reliable tuning stability and a classic look. The bone nut and saddle contribute to precise intonation and sustain, ensuring that every note rings true. The reverse belly laurel bridge adds to the guitar’s resonance and overall tonal quality.
Aesthetic Details: The Aged Cherry Sunburst finish highlights the natural wood grain, while the iconic Hummingbird tortoise shell pickguard with intricate graphics adds a vintage touch. Multi-ply binding on the top and back not only enhances durability but also provides an elegant appearance.
Versatility: This guitar is versatile enough to suit a wide range of musical genres, making it an excellent choice for both studio recording and live performances. The option to add a hardshell or EpiLite™ case ensures protection and portability.
