Not worth the cash

Product Review
I've owned a few of these, and it seems like every time I buy a new one, it's worse than the last one. This one has a neck that dips in the middle and it has three spots that have massive fret buzz unless you loosen the heck out of the Truss rod. Going to have to take it to a shop and have some frets filed I think. Gone are the days when three and $400 guitars we're playable right out of the box it would seem.

Fresh out of the box it needed a drastic neck set up due to nasty fret buzz. The tech set the neck but still had fret buzz. Fret work is the next step to attempt. First time being very upset with AMS. Disappointed my Wife who opened it as gift on Christmas day and couldn't play it.

I called and talked with them and they were awesome. They helped me with 3 guitars I had my eye on. They explained that it was a personal choice to make. In the end I got the Hummingbird and could not be happier. 3 days to receive my guitar,case,picks,and tuner which I chose the fender tuner which they said was a very good tuner which I do have to agree with. Excellent I would give then more stars if I could.

Bought an Epi Hummingbird from AMS and got it the next day (who does that?). Tha guitar is beautiful- perfect fit/finish and the sound- wow- sustain for ever, deep rich bass, that wants me to keep playing E,G, and barred chords just to hear the robust tone. I did have a minor problem w/ the tuners as it came w/ Wilkinsons - but a call to AMS and a set of Grovers was sent to me. Love this guitar

I needed an acoustic/electric for an upcoming gig, so I grabbed this because it was in my price range. MIND. BLOWN. The best feature is the controls are hidden just inside the sound hole, and it's just tone and volume! The tuning macines have the perfect ratio for tuning, and the bridge nut is set perfectly. This acoustic is exceptional right out of the box!

I cannot say enough about how amazing this guitar is. It sounds, plays, feels, and looks way, way more expensive than it is.

I’ll start by saying I own two high end Takamine’s, a 6 and 12 string. That said I received the Hummingbird and it plays and sounds great!
I was concerned about the volume and tone from a thinline but that was quelled immediately.
The setup is next to perfect, action and intonation is spot on all the way up the fretboard with zero fret buzz.
I was on the fence between this and the Dove which is a maple body and am more than pleased with the Hummingbird, it is bright and full.
I think you’ll be hard pressed to find a better sounding or playable thinline guitar for the money.

Iam impressed. I am a die-hard Gibson owner,(8 electrics) but can't afford a real Gibson Hummingbird. I played this Epiphone version one day at a local store and was very impressed. So much so I came home and ordered it. Big sound, great sustain, slim tapered neck,(My preference)And Grover tuners, now I can put in locking Grovers with no drilling. I have yet to plug it in but I will someday. For anyone with a budget who wants something to play un-plugged, this is a perfect choice. I am impressed.

Was hesitant to add this to my collection, after having some subpar and less than okay Epiphones over the years. Got it to match my Hummingbird Ukulele, so my niece and I can have "matching guitars", and I've gotta say I've been playing this Hummingbird acoustic everyday since it arrived. It's no top tier acoustic. But for the price you pay and what you get, it's a stellar addition. Nice and resonant and warm, and the finish all around just looks absolutely beautiful. If you're looking for a good acoustic in this price range, just go for this one, you won't be disappointed.

Product Review
I have owned the Hummingbird Pro for over a month now. I have been playing guitar for 23 years, toured 28 countries, and have owned many American made Gibsons, Fenders, and others.
I wanted an acoustic guitar for recording purposes. I read that the pickup inside is identical to the higher end Hummingbirds. After reading the top ten best guitars under $500 of 2018, 2019, etc, this model kept popping up.
It's unbelievable how great this guitar sounds for this price range. The lows and mid-range are right where they should be for a full sized dreadnought, but the spruce top adds a sustain (medium-light strings). This guitar is loud. The real magic happens when you plug it in.
The Hummingbird Pro is also well-built with scooped cross-bracing inside with a mix of solid mahogany and laminate for the sides and back. The bridge saddle and pins removable and replaceable. The neck has a real truss rod. The machine heads are the high-end 18:1 ratio. The neck is comfortable, it gets thin near the headstock. Electric players will be home here. Like all squared shouldered dreadnoughts, you won't be playing much above the 14th fret.
Some issues, which I believe this shares with the Gibson model: there is no tuner onboard. This is an extreme nitpick, since the active pickup sounds incredible. Also, the batteries are little 3v watch batteries. These are not as common as AAA types found in acoustic-electrics. Also, not always sold where batteries are sold. Again, extreme nitpicking.
It came setup with medium-light strings (12-52?), in tune, and ready to play. Also, free stickers never hurt. I shelled out the extra $130 for the epiphone case, but this guy would look beautiful on a wall. People constantly compliment me on how nice the guitar is.
Conclusion: This would be a great guitar for a singer/songwriter performing live acoustic and amplified, a recording artist or producer looking for high-end acoustic tone, or a beginner moving on to a more serious second instrument worthy of live performing.

Product Review
The fit and finish are fantastic although a little heavy with the clear gloss. I feel that a lot less clear and the guitar would be able to vibrate better leading to better tone. Mid and high tones were good unplugged but the lower voicing wasn’t there. Top E and A strings just sounded a little dead. But a new bone nut and a new bone bridge with a new set of 80/20 11 52 strings did seem to help some. But now when you plugged it into my Fender Acoustic amp and something amazing happened!!! The sound was amazing!!!!! Sounds nearly as crisp and clean as my $1600 Taylor, no joke. So now I only use my Taylor on really special gigs and I use my hummingbird for the rest. An acquaintance of mine has the Gibson $3800 Hummingbird and side by side when just acoustic the Gibson shines. However plugged into a good sound system it’s pretty tough to tell them apart. I am very happy now with my purchase. I do recommend having a good bone nut to replace the stock, and bone bridge and bone string pins. Didn’t make a Great difference acoustical, but plugged in it sure did.

I love my guitar! I've always wanted a hummingbird and always knew it would have to be an Epiphone. I've been playing Epiphones my entire life. The instrument is beautiful But the set up out of the box wasn't! The neck had a lot of back bow, so it buzzed like a hornets nest. I payed my guitar tech 50 bucks and he put my preferred brand and sized stings on, adjusted the neck, and Bam! plays like a dream. But I Sort of expected there could be minor issues like this. Im happy with my purchase, and the payments helped me afford to make the purchase.
I do feel Epiphone could do a better factory set up.

It fees fantastic in my hands and was no where near as thick as a dreadnot but felt just right sitting down to play. The electronic are much better than the ovation I had been playing.

I love it, bought a dent and scratch Epiphone DR100 for $80.00 and got a Hummingbird Pro instead. Needless to say I am very happy with this guitar. Plays great and everyone that sees it loves to play it.

The guitar looks very nice. The bridge saddle is too high and needs to be fixed. Also, the saddle has string grooves that are causing my strings to be spaced oddly. I will keep the guitar because it was affordable and fix the saddle.

Product Review
I was needing a quality guitar for our Church Band, and PTSD music therapy. I would like to thank AMS and Mr. Bundt for a very unexpected blessing to help our music ministry. I've played professionally since 1964. I have seen and played some quality instruments, the Epiphone Hummingbird Pro that I got from AMS is an extremely capable guitar and sounds and plays as well as some priced 5 times what AMS sells them for. If you need a quality instrument at a price you can appreciate, you can't go wrong with this one. Once Again Thanks AMS

Product Review
After reading all of the reviews about this guitar, I decided to believe the general consensus and make the purchase. I was not at all disappointed. I own a Taylor 614ce, 410, and Baby Taylor, an Ibanez AE, SR504 bass, and an Aria II, so I know the sound and feel of a quality axe.I also know the cost of owning a quality guitar. So, for $300, my question was, "can this even compare?" OK, we know there has to be a diffefence between a 3K guitar and a $300 guitar but, surprisingly, the Hummingbird measures up in tone, playability, and quality workmanship. In addition, the guitar is beautiful, which encourages more time spent playing. My guitar came the next business day after ordering, no set up required; strings a little loose and needing tuning, awesome glossy finish, nice fat neck and perfect intonation. I haven't plugged in yet, but am so excited with this guitar so far, that I have to post a review. Sometimes, we can't be too sure how seriously to take a review. In this case, believe it and get this guitar for this price. I've been playing for many years--not professionally, but long enough to know and appreciate a quality guitar. I only expect this guitar to get better with age...the guitar's and mine.

Your general opinion of this product.
Love it. The pictures don't do it justice. looks way better in person than in the pics.
It seems to be well made and should stand up to the playing that will be done on it.
The guitar itself feel like any other guitar I have owned or played. The action was far better than I expected. Easy to play and the controls are right there so only take a second to adjust, even while playing.
It sounded good right out of the box. Needed a little tuning. Pick up sounded great. the lower strings had some bass and the higher strings had more treble which the combination of the two made for a great sound.
The action was sweet. Not to high and really comfortable to play. Even some blues solos were easy to play.
The finish is absolutely beautiful. Couldn't believe that the finish like that came on an affordable guitar like that. Compares right up there with the Gibson Hummingbird.
Cant say, only had it three weeks now but seems to be well built and should get years of enjoyment out of it.

Your general opinion of this product.
Got this for my 10 year old who has been playing for about 2 years. Thought it was time for her to have her own guitar instead of using her brother's. She really wanted the Gibson Hummingbird, but was so happy when she opened this up at Christmas. She loves it. It sounds amazing. Even her guitar teacher is impressed with it.

Your general opinion of this product.
Had to have the frets dressed bending high E would choke off but it was covered under warranty, now plays like a dream.
Yes very well made and very dependable.
After lowering action a bit and having frets dressed it almost feels like an electric guitar, best acoustic I played in a long time.
Sounds great
A little high and needed frets dressed.
Excellent
I have it 5 months now still plays and sounds great, noticed the hummingbird on pick gaurd is wearing off I guess I have to be careful wear I rest my picking hand.

Your general opinion of this product.
I was hesitant about the Epiphone brand. Always thought it was a low end mass retail product. Dead wrong. This is simply put a wonderful instrument.
Quality is excellent. Not a flaw on it. Good solid feel. I've only had it a couple of days but I am sure it will be a dependable companion for a long time.
Feels solid; neck is great--smooth low action.
Has a bright and mellow sound, full and rich.
A great setup. It was even fully in tune when I took it out of box. Sat down and played and didn't have to change a thing
Superb is the only way I can describe it. I was truly impressed.
I've only had it a short time but I am 100% sure that this guitar will be a great companion for a long time.

Your general opinion of this product.
Very nice electric/acoustic for the price! Finish is flawless.
I own an Epiphone EJ-200. It has taken a beating and still looks and plays great! This Hummingbird is built no differently. Rock solid, dependable.
Not too heavy. Neck has the gloss finish which some people prefer to sand for smoother feel. I haven't had that issue, so I'll leave it alone.
Bright tone with a good mix of Lows, highs, and mids. Plugged in, the eq on the guitar is very functional. If you think it sounds too bright, you have a dynamics control to fine tune.
Set up out of the box was near perfect. I sanded the saddle to lower the string action to my liking.
Gorgeous
Should hold up fine.

So far this guitar appears to have been made very well.
I've had it about a month, no issues so far.
Your general opinion of this product.
Very nice looking guitar for the price.
This guitar plays quite well.
The tone is pretty dark, but still a bit brighter than I would have preferred. I may change out the strings to see if that makes a difference. Someone on the Epiphone site said that they use Gibson Masterbuilt strings now, but they don't sound like it.
Nice finish. A little too much lacquer in my opinion but I think that's normal for Epiphone.
The action was fairly low, no buzzing so far.

Excellent craftsmanship and set-up out of the box.
Seems to be built very well so it should be quite reliable.
Your general opinion of this product.
Overall I think this is the finest guitar for the money; 1/10 the cost of the original Gibson with 3/4 of the sound.
Very close to it's bigger Gibson cousin!
The highs ring out very clear with the solid top but the low end is a little weak acoustically but can be fixed with a slight EQ adjustment.
Finish is stunning!
Action was very good out of the box but could probably be lowered just a bit.

Its made very well! Stays in tune and has great action. I used to play my Uncle's 58' Gibson Hummingbird and loved it. Because of that I wanted to give this one a shot. I couldn't be happier!
It's only 2 weeks old, but I know guitars and this one will stand the test of time.
Your general opinion of this product.
Can't say enough amazing things about this guitar. It's beautiful to see and hear.
Neck is great on this. The first guitar I've ever purchased that I didn't have to adjust.
Bright tone just like the original Gibson version, and I get compliment after compliment at gigs while having this plugged in. I am opening for The Farm Inc this week acoustically and this will be the only guitar I'm using!!
Side by side with an original hummingbird this stands up just as beautiful.
Very low action out of the box, plays great. I bought a set of Elxr's with it but was so happy with the strings that came on it I haven't changed them out yet.

Epiphone Hummingbird Rocks!!
By: Mike C from Greensboro, NC
Submitted: 12/28/2012
Beautiful construction and look. Epiphone hit a home run with the color!
Don't know yet, I only had it a day. However, based on what I know about Epiphone guitars, it should last many, many years.
Your general opinion of this product.
For the price, this guitar seems like a steal. Gibson's version of the Hummingbird, which looks very similar, costs about $2,500 more.
Neck feels smooth and fast!
Beautiful tone even with the stock strings!
Excellent!
Perfect!

I own a 1995 and 2005 6 string and a 2006 Limited Edition 12 string, and found them to be dependable.
All three have stood the test of time, no issues w/ playability, finish,etc.
Your general opinion of this product.
Great value for the money !!!!!
Low action on all three, neck feels comfortable
Sound " mellow", Typical sounding mahogany bodied, solid spruce top on the 1995 is " aging nicely"
This "faded cherry burst" hopefully, looks better than the current cherry sunburst on the unamplified one. I also have a 2009 Hummingbird Artist, ( from one of the "other guys") which has one of the best "faded cherry" finishes on an acoustic guitar at this price point. hope this one is similar looking.
On the other three, all had nice low action. no buzzing. never had issues w/ Epiphone's setups. Been playing for 48 yrs now.
