Beautiful Custom Shop Martin 000 14-Fret in Sitka Spruce and Sinker Mahogany.
This limited-edition model has been specially made in Martin’s Custom Shop for the UK market via distributors Westside in Glasgow. It features mahogany that has been submerged in water for a few centuries as their primary tonewoods (back, sides and neck). The top is Sitka spruce with an aging toner, the fingerboard and bridge are ebony and the nut and saddle are made of bone.
The neck has a comfortable modified low oval neck profile with a 1 3/4" nut width making particularly suitable for fingerstyle players. Playability is great with a nice comfortable action.
This 2018 model is in very good condition overall. There are some minor cosmetic blemishes - some light surface scratches and a small ding on the top (lower bout) but nothing that affects the playability or function of the instrument.
