Cutaway Access Meets Classic Hummingbird Warmth
The Epiphone Inspired by Hummingbird Standard EC Cherry Sunburst builds on the familiar Hummingbird voice while adding a cutaway for greater access up the neck. The solid spruce top delivers clear projection and articulation, while the solid mahogany back and sides bring warmth and a focused midrange that works well for strumming and melodic playing.
The Rounded C mahogany neck offers a comfortable, easy grip, with a smooth 12" radius that suits both chord work and lead lines. The cutaway design makes a noticeable difference when moving beyond the 12th fret, opening up more expressive playing options.
The Fishman electronics system includes a built-in tuner and side-mounted controls, making it practical for live use—whether you're plugging into a PA for a pub set, recording direct into an interface, or running through an acoustic amp for a small venue. Classic visual details like the split parallelogram inlays and iconic pickguard round out a design that stays true to the original.
At Riffs & Licks Music, we think this is a strong choice for players who want traditional Hummingbird tone with added upper-fret access and gig-ready electronics.
