Epiphone Hummingbird Studio EC Electro Acoustic Guitar; Heritage Cherry Sunburst

Epiphone Hummingbird Studio EC; Heritage Cherry Sunburst

The Epiphone Hummingbird Studio EC captures the distinct tonal balance and historic presence of the classic square-shoulder dreadnought, updating it with a smooth Venetian cutaway for modern performance needs. Designed for musicians who require a versatile instrument that transitions seamlessly between traditional tracking sessions and high-energy live shows, this model preserves the iconic Hummingbird character while expanding its upper-fret utility.

The acoustic foundation comprises a solid spruce top paired with layered mahogany back and sides, delivering a warm, balanced frequency response with excellent headroom. The 24.75" short-scale mahogany neck features a comfortable Rounded C profile and is capped with a bound rosewood fingerboard for a forgiving, fluid feel. The physical specification is completed by premium Grover Rotomatic tuning machines, a traditional belly-up rosewood bridge, a white plastic nut, and an intricate 6-ply top binding layout.

Acoustic Performance & Playability

• Solid Spruce Top: Offers a highly responsive dynamic range, yielding warm low-end warmth, punchy mid-range focus, and clear acoustic projection.

• Square-Shoulder Cutaway Design: Blends the authoritative volume of a traditional dreadnought with a Venetian cutaway for unhindered access to the higher frets.

• Short-Scale Configuration: The 24.75" scale length reduces string tension, offering a slinky, expressive feel that accommodates both heavy strumming and articulate fingerpicking.

• Ergonomic Neck & Fretboard: A Rounded C profile neck and a bound rosewood fingerboard with pearloid split parallelogram inlays provide structural comfort during long sets.

Stage-Ready Electronics & Heritage Hardware

• Fishman Presys II System: Integrates a side-mounted preamp with an under-saddle Fishman S-Core pickup to output a clear, natural acoustic tone directly to a PA or audio interface.

• Onboard Tone Shaping: Features precise adjustments for volume, bass, and treble, alongside a feedback-reducing phase switch and a built-in digital tuner.

• Grover Rotomatic Tuners: Equipped with high-ratio Grover tuning machines to ensure reliable tuning stability and precision performance night after night.

• Authentic Styling Elements: Outfitted with the signature Hummingbird tortoiseshell graphic pickguard, multi-ply antique ivory/black binding, and a classic gloss Heritage Cherry Sunburst finish.

The Epiphone Hummingbird Studio EC unites timeless aesthetic heritage with rugged, road-tested construction standards. Engineered to survive the demands of frequent travel and rigorous performance schedules, it stands as a reliable tool for singer-songwriters and session players alike. The instrument includes a standard factory gig bag for straightforward transport and protection.
