Gibson CS Hummingbird Regal 2018 Limited Edition

Gibson Custom Shop Hummingbird Regal 2018 Limited Edition

An extremely rare Regal model that rarely appears on the market. This is a Custom Shop model that stands apart from the regular Hummingbird, with a limited production run and virtually no domestic distribution.

While in beautiful condition overall, there is one small ding on the body top and minor scuffs on the headstock from use.

The most significant feature is the special specification using rosewood. Unlike the standard mahogany-based Hummingbird, this model boasts a wide tonal range with deep lows and rich overtones. The notes of each string are well-balanced, as if a natural compression is applied.

Furthermore, the 3-piece back construction, abalone inlay, and gold hardware showcase the luxurious craftsmanship unique to Custom Shop models. In terms of both appearance and specifications, it is completely in a class of its own compared to standard models.

Due to its limited production, this model is gaining recognition in the overseas market and is expected to become even more difficult to obtain in the future. It is recommended for collectors and those seeking a commanding presence on stage.

While its striking appearance may initially capture your attention, its sound is truly exceptional. The notes of each string are uniformly balanced as if naturally compressed, maintaining clarity whether playing chords or single notes. The low end is full and resonant without being overpowering, while the highs are brilliant and never harsh, striking a perfect balance.

The depth and wide tonal range characteristic of rosewood, combined with the responsiveness of the 3-piece back construction, create a sound character distinctly different from a regular Hummingbird.

Once you play it, you'll understand its unique cohesiveness and comfortable feel; there's a sonic texture that can only be achieved with this guitar. I don't want to let it go.

There are minor scuffs from use, but the overall condition is good. There are no defects that affect playability. One ding on the top body and scuffs on the headstock.

Equipped with a FISHMAN Rare Earth Single pickup.

I purchased this as a lifelong instrument, but due to an upcoming move overseas, it's difficult to maintain, so I am reluctantly selling it.
