Sound Pure's Take
EXTREMELY balanced, full, and rich sounding guitar with some of the loveliest bear-clawed Sitka that nature has to offer! I'm starting to feel like Sapele is the the most consistently-toned back & side wood around. This guitar is a dream come true for those who choose their notes carefully. Ideal for open tunings, finger-style, AND flat-picking. Not many guitars that can boast that....
- 12-fret dreadnought body, solid Sapele back & sides, solid bearclaw spruce top with scalloped braces (hybrid pattern with mortise & tenon neck joint), herringbone top trim, pearl herringbone rosette, aging toner on top, tortoise pickguard, striped ebony bridge, white bridgepins with abalone dots, ivoroid binding. Low oval profile neck with slotted peghead, striped ebony fretboard (1 3/4" nut, 25.4" scale) with gold color frets and old style small abalone dot inlays, rosewood headplate with old style decal logo, gold enclosed gears with pearloid buttons. Gloss finish body, satin finish neck, wooden hardshell case. Inside label sequentially numbered and signed by Martin CEO C.F.Martin IV.
