The Story

Custom Shop Dreadnought Custom Authentic Adirondack Spruce and Guatemalan Rosewood Ambertone 1933

This is a Martin Custom Shop Dreadnought built with Custom Authentic appointments and a gorgeous, dark 1933 Ambertone Sunburst finish over an Adirondack spruce top. The guitar is built with all hot hide glue construction and the Adirondack top is paired with coveted Guatemalan rosewood for the back and sides along with a quartersawn mahogany neck. The neck is carved to a modified low oval profile that's very comfortable to play for long sessions. Cosmetics include a herringbone top inlay surrounded by European flame maple binding and a Style 28 rosette. As for its tone, the guitar has a very warm and worn-in tone thanks to the rosewood combined with the hide glue construction, with ringing trebles that don't sound brittle and an even bass that isn't too overbearing! Make this top-tier Martin dreadnought yours today!

Includes: Hardshell Case and Paperwork
