In 1999, Sheryl Crow brought her beloved 1962 Gibson Country Western to Gibson Acoustic and asked for an identical replica with modern appointments, worried that her favorite acoustic would soon succumb to the rigors of the road. Gibson responded in kind with the introduction of the new Sheryl Crow Signature Artist Series guitar"basically a painstaking recreation of Crows Country Western, but also a variation of Gibsons renowned Hummingbird. The body is similar to Gibsons J-45 slope shoulder dreadnought design, but with wider, square shoulder accents on the upper bouts. The radius top projects a full, balanced expression, with blended dark lows and brilliant highs.
