The Story

Custom Shop 2016 NAMM Display 000-45 12-Fret Honduran Rosewood Acoustic Guitar

This is truly one for the books; a Martin Custom Shop 000-45 12-Fret acoustic made with beautiful pieces of Honduran Rosewood for the back and sides, with a premium Carpathian spruce top, outlined by abalone top inlays with grained ivoroid binding. The headplate has a matching piece of Honduran rosewood, and the ornate qualities of the guitar are topped off with abalone snowflake inlays, an ebony pyramid bridge, and Waverly brass tuners with ivoroid knobs. The tone of the guitar can only be described as crystal clear, with every note and overtone in chords sounding loud and clear. After one strum, you’ll realize this is a masterpiece of a guitar you won’t want to put down.

Includes: Hardshell Case, Paperwork
