Martin Custom Shop 000 Auditorium Body, 28 Style, Sitka Spruce VTS/Highly Flamed Koa, Toasted Burst
The Martin Custom Shop wows us once again with this, a 000 Auditorium Body, 18 Style acoustic guitar.
It comes without question that the Martin Custom Shop team is built around an elite camp of the finest guitar luthiers in the United States, making what many consider to be the American flagship legacy guitar. Each piece is a work of high regard, with uncompromising attention to detail and build quality.
This 000 28 Style guitar is a gorgeous interpretation of the Martin Auditorium body design. Most exquisitely, this Martin Custom Shop instrument is comprised of a highly flamed Koa back and sides package – a tonewood known for its striking visual appearance as well as its complex frequency range. The guitar’s top is made of Sitka Spruce, and receives the VTS, or Vintage Tone System, aging treatment. The end result of this process offers a broken-in sound and response on a brand new instrument.
Other key features of this Martin Custom Shop 000 are Antique White binding with Herringbone top detail, Scalloped X-bracing under the hood, Black Ebony bridge and fingerboard, Martin’s Diamonds and Squares Long Pattern inlay detail, Modified Low Oval neck profile, bone nut and saddle, and 24.9″ scale length.
The unparalleled build quality and visual excellence of Martin Custom Shop is certainly exemplified in this 000 Auditorium Body 28 Style guitar.
