Gibson Hummingbird Custom either A605837 or A805387

Hi, micbiggs25--

The serial number is coming up as "unrecognized". The year is not so important for price, as the Blue Book offers one price for all years.

Here is the general info from the Blue Book:

HUMMINGBIRD CUSTOM (MODEL SSHC) A
- custom shop variation featuring hummingbird inlays on the headstock, pickguard, and bridge, beginning 2003, hummingbird inlays are also on ebony fingerboard, customer selected back/side wood, including koa (standard beginning 2003), mahogany neck, abalone top trim, engraved gold tuners, available in Antique Natural (2003-present), Heritage Cherry, or Sunburst finish, mfg. by the MT Custom Shop beginning 1999, 36 mfg. beginning 2005-present.

Here is the pricing info:

Excellent $3,000 - 3,500
Average $1,950 - 2,250
