AxeDB's estimate

Aftermarket Price History

Used-market sales only. Brand New listings excluded.

The Hummingbird Custom Shop page is for buyers who want Gibson's square-shoulder flagship idea done with more care than the regular production line can usually offer. These are not impulse acoustics. The strongest ones feel graceful, structurally calm and unmistakably like premium Hummingbirds rather than expensive generic dreadnoughts.

Individual Listings (Used Market)

Used-condition sales and current used listings. Brand New listings excluded.
