The new guitar is the second to bear her name
Epiphone has unveiled the Miranda Lambert Bluebird Studio guitar, a variation on the iconic Hummingbird acoustic guitar that includes upgraded features in a stunning Bluebonnet color celebrating the official flower of Lambert’s home state of Texas. The new Epiphone Miranda Lambert Bluebird Studio follows the successful release of the Gibson Miranda Lambert Bluebird acoustic last year, which is the best-selling Gibson signature acoustic guitar over the past year. The new Epiphone Miranda Lambert Bluebird Studio is now available at Authorized Epiphone dealers and worldwide online.
Lambert has solidified her legacy as one of the most pivotal artists in modern-day country music. A constant champion of female artists–including through numerous collaborations and her work as a member of the Pistol Annies–Miranda Lambert has made it a priority to use her well-earned influence to encourage more girls and women to pick up guitars themselves. A decorated songwriter, Academy of Country Music “Entertainer of the Year,” passionate animal advocate, restaurateur, businesswoman, and New York Times best-selling author, Miranda Lambert is among the brightest stars in modern country music. Named as one of the most influential people in the world by Time, Lambert has won multiple Grammy Awards and has been honored with more Academy of Country Music Awards than any artist in history.
“My hope is that the release of the Epiphone Bluebird Studio with a more approachable price point will make it possible for young girls and women in general to get their hands on one,” says Lambert. “If it makes it more accessible and achievable for girls to chase their dreams, then it’s a win in my book.”
Epiphone is proud to honor Miranda’s music and mission by adding this special variation on the iconic Hummingbird acoustic guitar to the core lineup, bringing the Miranda Lambert Bluebird acoustic to more players and more stages worldwide. Named after Miranda’s chart-topping and Grammy-nominated song “Bluebird,” the Miranda Lambert Bluebird Studio is as distinctive as its namesake with a square shoulder layered mahogany body and a solid Sitka spruce top designed for both visual appeal and tonal excellence. The choice of materials ensures a rich, resonant sound that ages well. The Miranda Lambert Bluebird Studio features a stunning Bluebonnet gloss finish–celebrating the official flower of her home state of Texas—a custom Bluebird pickguard and the onboard Fishman electronics make this guitar plug-in ready the moment fans take it out of the included hardshell guitar case.
Lambert has chosen the release of the Epiphone Miranda Lambert Bluebird Studio to benefit the Nashville nonprofit YEAH! (Youth Empowerment through Arts & Humanities). Epiphone and Lambert will donate five instruments to the charity, along with funds to cover the cost of five scholarships to the YEAH! Rocks summer music camp this June 3-7. One of the five guitars will be signed by Lambert and auctioned at the camp showcase on June 8th, with the four others used in annual programming.
The collaboration between Miranda Lambert and Epiphone to create the Bluebird Studio celebrates not only Lambert’s musical achievements, but also her personal story, style, and global influence on culture.
