Epiphone Eric Church Hummingbird Dark Studio Cobra Burst

Epiphone Eric Church Hummingbird Dark Studio Cobra Burst
Serial Number: 26051500587
Weight: 4.86 lbs.

The Epiphone Eric Church Hummingbird Dark in Cobra Burst is a signature acoustic-electric built around a dark rework of the Hummingbird's familiar appointments. The gloss Cobra Burst finish runs deep and moody, set off by single-ply black binding on the top, back, and fretboard, with a custom Hummingbird Dark pickguard in Carolina Blue and silver. A solid European spruce top sits over layered mahogany back and sides in a square-shouldered dreadnought shape, and the 4" Performer body depth trims the guitar front to back — easier to get an arm around, with tonal balance that stays even rather than bass-heavy. It weighs 4.86 lbs.

The mahogany neck is glued in with a tapered dovetail joint and carved to a Rounded C profile (.815" at the 1st fret, .900" at the 9th), finished in gloss. A rosewood fretboard carries grey pearloid split parallelogram inlays across a 12" radius and 20 frets, with a 24.75" scale and a 1.69" bone nut. The shorter scale drops string tension slightly, which makes barre chords and bends easier on the hand — a real consideration on a dreadnought you'll play through a full set. The Kalamazoo-style headstock wears a grey and black mother-of-pearl Epiphone logo with a Gibson crown inlay, a reproduction of Eric Church's signature in gold on the rear, and Grover Rotomatic tuners in nickel. The belly-down rosewood bridge holds a bone saddle.

Electronics are a Fishman Presys VT preamp with a Sonicore under-saddle pickup, with volume and tone controls mounted in the soundhole where they stay reachable and out of sight. It's a plug-in-and-play setup that gets a clean, consistent signal to the board without much fuss, which is what a working acoustic needs. Whether you're a country player who wants the Hummingbird voice in a darker package, a songwriter looking for a solid-top dreadnought that plugs in cleanly, or an Eric Church fan after the signature model, this one delivers. This Epiphone Eric Church Hummingbird Dark (Serial #26051500587) includes an Epiphone hardshell case with Eric Church signature print. Note that a 9-volt battery is required for the pickup and is not included. Order today from Brian's Guitars, your authorized Epiphone dealer.
