Description

Behold this amazing & completely customized Martin D-45: a true one-of-a-kind dreamt up in the Martin Custom Shop and built with their finest available tonewoods. The premium Madagascar Rosewood body and Adirondack Spruce top are adorned with style-45 select abalone purflings and highly flamed Koa bindings, and the fretboard and headstock veneer are inlaid with the deluxe vine motif (Koa bordered in Paua). After a few minutes basking in this guitar's jaw-dropping beauty, you'll be ready for the first strum ~ and you won't be disappointed. This guitar is enormously resonant, with the power, depth of tone and ethereal shimmer you'd expect from an heirloom-grade D-45. The midrange in particular is sensational: woody and warm, with plenty of punch for flatpicking and strumming. If you've been looking for a master-class D-45 with the sound, looks and panache to set it apart from the crowd, please give us a call. Priced with deluxe Custom Shop hard case from Martin.
