The Story

Custom Shop 00-17 Sinker Mahogany Acoustic Guitar Natural

This is one fun Martin creation to play. Here is a 14-fret 00-sized acoustic built with sinker mahogany for the top, back, and sides. The neck on this guitar is very special. It's a single piece of rosewood that has been acclimating in the Martin wood room since the 1970s, making it incredibly sturdy - not to mention amazing looking and sounding. We picked these out during a visit to Martin, and the guitars we've created with these necks have all been wondering pieces of art as well as musical instruments. Accoutrements are subtle on this one: no binding, diamond and square fretboard inlays, and a single-ring rosette.

Includes: Hardshell Case and Paperwork
