I have just bought this, didnt get it for a bargain or anything like that, but the tone was so warm and sweet, I couldn t say no, 
What I love about small independant shops are :
Happy to take part ex so I traded my Godin 12 string.
Paid £500 there and then,
Payment plan of £50 a month for the next 10 months, with no interest.

Gibson Hummingbird Historic series. Bloody brilliant!

    @Niallmo thanks, very pretty indeed I like to gig all my guitars but as this does not have a pickup the 40s gibson L50 will be the gigging guitar, this one as you say is pretty,.... Way to pretty for gigging, home jamming and self loathing sessions will be it's forte

    Nice!

    Easy enough to fit a pickup. I thought all recent Gibsons came with a Baggs Element pre-installed? My Dove and CJ-165 did. 

    I don't like them actually, I took it out of the Dove and will do from the CJ when I get a passive Fishman for it… if you want the one out of the Dove, ask!

    @ICBM, Hey thanks for the Kudos, its a brilliant guitar, The Historic series (this one) was acoustic only i believe, but you know Gibson, nothings concrete, I have been tempted with a pickup for this, but I dont like the thought of drilling etc, so will prob go down the route of an SD woody etc, but thank you for the offer its appreciated :)

    Even after getting a Dove I still lust after Hummingbirds. I haven't found a good one yet though. Glad you did though! :)

    @stickyfiddle thanks bud, I understand that I have played a few over the years but this was the only one which jumped out with tone and playability, I have never really been intent he looks, but it does not matter when is sounds so nice!
