What We Think
Condition: Used, Excellent
As excellent a collector's piece as it is a tool of musical expression, this unique piece represents the highest end of Martin's artisanry. While it's new to our ears as a tonewood, the Walnut-like darkness and concentration of tone and the Koa-like punch and clarity of the Curly Mango have left an impression we will not soon forget. Fabulous for the blues playing the bodystyle suggests, but also an instrument that would sit perfectly in a mix as a vocal accompaniment.
SP Luthier Notes: Fret Dress, Setup
Manufacturer's Description from Martin
This exquisite 00 14-fret slope-shoulder acoustic guitar exhibits a curly mango top with a gorgeous gloss mango sunset burst finish, paired with figured curly mango back and sides. Other features include antique white binding and heelcap with multi-stripe border, a compensated bone saddle, Liquidmetal® bridge pins on an ebony bridge, and an ebony fingerboard with Style 42 snowflake inlay. The look is completed with vintage copper open-gear tuners and a stylized script logo on a faux tortoise headplate. The model also comes with a modified V neck for fast finger work. Each model includes a label signed by Chris Martin IV and numbered in sequence.
About Manufacturer
For well over a century and a half, The Martin Guitar Company has been continuously producing acoustic instruments that are acknowledged to be the finest in the world. The Martin Guitar Company has, through the years, managed to survive with each succeeding generation from C. F. Martin, Sr.?s Stauffer influenced creations of the 1830s to recent developments introduced by C. F. Martin IV. Continuous operation under family management is a feat bordering on the remarkable, reflecting six generations of dedication to the guitarmaker?s craft. In or out of the music industry, C. F. Martin has few rivals for sheer staying power. Throughout its colorful history, the company has adapted successfully to continual changes in product design, distribution systems, and manufacturing methods. In spite of the many changes, C. F. Martin has never veered away from its initial commitment to quality. The concern for producing the finest instruments possible in 1833 is especially evident today at Martin?s expanded facility in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. The story behind one of America?s most famous guitars began on January 31, 1796, in Markneukirchen, Germany, with the birth of Christian Frederick Martin, Sr. Born into a long line of cabinet makers, Christian Frederick took up the family craft at the early age of 15, when he left his hometown and traveled to Vienna to apprentice with Johann Stauffer, a renowned guitar maker.
