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. A constant champion of female artists—including numerous collaborations and her work as a member of the Pistol Annies—Miranda Lambert has made it a priority to encourage more girls and women to pick up guitars themselves. Her music and mission have been honored with a new Epiphone signature model guitar: the Miranda Lambert Bluebird Studio is as distinctive as its namesake. A variation on the iconic Hummingbird™, it features a square shoulder layered mahogany body with a solid Sitka spruce top, a vivid Bluebonnet gloss finish celebrating the official flower of her home state of Texas, and a custom Bluebird pickguard inspired by her chart-topping song of the same name. The onboard Fishman™ electronics make this guitar plug-in ready from the moment you take it out of the included hardshell case. A battery is not included. To power your pickup, you will need a 9-volt battery.
