Gibson Custom Shop Hummingbird
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.
Market Report
Used examples typically trade between $4,350 and $4,600; anything under $4,350 is worth a close look. Prices are up +3.2% vs. 12 months ago. The market is predictable month to month.
This is a slow-moving market at ~6/month. Sellers may wait longer for the right buyer; don't expect a quick flip.
Condition matters here — worn examples sell for roughly 41% less than clean ones. Prioritize a good example if you plan to resell.
