A signature Hummingbird with a beautiful dark aesthetic
Eric Church is in the middle of a creative surge, fresh off a string of sold-out shows and with a growing legacy as one of country’s most fearless voices. The Hummingbird Dark is his sonic and visual signature in guitar form. Drenched in a moody Cobra Burst gloss finish with black binding and a custom Hummingbird Dark pickguard, this acoustic-electric is built to stand out on stage and cut deep in the studio. It’s rich, resonant, and ready for the road— just like the stories Eric tells through every chord.
The Eric Church Hummingbird Dark’s square-shouldered dreadnought body is crafted from layered mahogany for the back and sides, paired with a solid European spruce top for tone that will get better and better as it ages. The Hummingbird Dark’s 4” Performer body depth is also slightly slimmer from front to back, making it more comfortable to hold and play and giving it excellent tonal balance. The single-ply binding is black throughout the guitar, including the top, back, and fretboard, adding to the guitar’s dark, slightly menacing aesthetic. The set mahogany neck features a Rounded C profile and a rosewood fretboard. The grey pearloid split parallelogram inlays continue the dark theme, while the 12” fretboard radius and 20 standard frets ensure easy playability. The Kalamazoo-style headstock is fitted with high-quality Grover® Rotomatic® tuners for solid tuning stability. It is adorned with a grey/black mother-of-pearl Epiphone logo and Gibson Crown inlay on the front, while a reproduction of Eric’s signature in gold is featured on the headstock rear.
Of course, a guitar with Eric Church’s name on it needs to be stage and studio-ready, so the Eric Church Hummingbird Dark comes with a Fishman® Presys™ VT preamp and Sonicore™ under-saddle pickup pre-installed, so it’s ready to go wherever the muse takes you. To help keep it safe on the journey, it comes packed in a black hardshell case with a reproduction of Eric’s signature on the exterior. This very special guitar is sure to be a hit, thanks to its unique dark appointments and big, expressive tone. It’s built for the spotlight and the songwriter behind it.
A battery is not included. To power your pickup, you will need a 9-volt battery.
