Handsomely bound in figured Maple, a "Cherry Hill" Custom offers an elegant take on the simple guitars that made the Martin voice legendary.

As an homage to C.F. Martin's austere beginnings in the "Cherry Hill" neighborhood of Nazareth, Pennsylvania, Martin's Custom Shop is offering a limited number of guitars produced under that same "Cherry Hill" moniker ~ guitars only available to retailers who visit the Martin factory. These instruments are built and styled much like a Standard Series style-18 guitar, with native Pennsylvanian Cherry for the back & sides in place of Mahogany. Handsomely bound in figured Maple, a Cherry Hill Custom offers an elegant take on the simple guitars that made the Martin voice legendary. And based on the lovely, rich tone of this guitar, we're guessing anyone wearing a blindfold would never know the difference between it and a standout-great 000-18. Priced with 3-ply hardshell case from Martin.
