The Story

Used Custom Shop CS-OM True North-16 Acoustic Guitar

This might be one of the most ornate Martin instruments we�ve ever come across! Here is a gorgeous pre-owned Martin Custom Shop CS-OM True North-16, a 000-14 body size acoustic guitar built with amazing pieces of Adirondack spruce and figured koa, and topped with a custom designed rosette, an ebony headplate inlaid with a compass design, and a back inlay that has to be seen in person to admired correctly with a compass design made of flamed jarrah, Claro walnut, waterfall bubinga and Paua pearl. Only fifty of these guitars were made, so it�s sure to be a collectors piece just as much as it is a fantastic sounding instrument - and it's still in excellent condition with the original hardshell case included!

Includes: Hardshell Case
