Martin Custom Shop D Homeward Bound Sailor Jerry Dreadnought Acoustic Natural

Custom Shop D Homeward Bound Sailor Jerry Dreadnought Acoustic Natural Item Description

A quite collectible Martin, this is the new and limited edition Martin D Homeward Dreadnought built with ornate art in honor of tattoo legend Norman "Sailor Jerry" Collins. The guitars top, headstock and fretboard are inlaid with Collin's art entitled "Homeward Bound", with shell and hand-selected wood to create the art. The wood tones were created using a technique called sand shading to create the different colors. In addition to the artwork, the guitar features quilted bubinga binding, with koa back and sides and a matching koa headstock overlay. The top is heavy bearclaw Sitka spruce and features non-scalloped, forward-shifted X-bracing found in Martin’s recently reimagined Standard Series. A beautiful piece that will be a great collectible for years to come!

Includes: Hardshell Case and Paperwork
