Martin Custom Shop D-45 Slope Shoulder Acoustic Guitar 2014594

Regular price $9,876.00 Sale

This is a stunning Martin Custom Shop D-45 Slope Shoulder Acoustic Guitar model made from the highest quality components that Martin can get their hands on. The D-45 is considered the pinnacle of Martin guitars so we took that model and upped it a notch.

Let's start with the beautiful Guatemalan Rosewood back and sides that provide an incredibly deep and rich tone that is well balanced across all frequencies. High frequencies  sparkle and the mid range is nice and punchy. The low's stay clear, crisp, and articulate. It's great guitar for strumming and flat picking. A bluegrass players dream guitar thanks in part to it's Adirondack Spruce Top which allows this Acoustic to go to 11 or rather 12 or 13! This species of Spruce packs a faster reaction time with extra volume and punch... kind of like playing a Dr. Z amplifier for you electric guys! Finished in an Ambertone Sunburst this guitar is about as great looking as it gets. 

The performance artist neck is well shaped and very comfortable to play. The frets are perfectly dressed and intonation is spot on. A genuine Mahogany Neck is carved to the Performing Artist profile and topped with a lustrous Ebony Fingerboard. The fingerboard is bound with European Figured Maple and then inlaid with
