Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
In Heritage Cherry Sunburst, the Hummingbird Original is a dreadnought acoustic-electric with a solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides. Its acoustic character combines crisp treble, focused bass, warmth, depth, projection, and broad dynamics. LR Baggs VTC Element electronics make that voice available for amplified stage and studio work. The slim mahogany neck measures 1.725 inches at the nut, and the belly bridge with compensated saddle is intended for accurate intonation and tonal clarity through strummed and fingerpicked material.
