Overview

A stunning 000-sized Martin with an aged finish and fine tonewoods.

The 42-Style Wild Grain East Indian Rosewood Deluxe Natural is an eye-catching Custom Shop Auditorium crafted with a premium Sitka Spruce VTS top with scalloped Sitka spruce braces, a Style 45 rosette, hand-selected Wild Grain East Indian rosewood back and sides with European flame maple binding. A great-feeling mahogany modified V neck, ebony fingerboard with Style 45 Snowflake inlay is topped off with a premium East Indian rosewood headplate with a C.F. Martin select abalone inlay and gold Schaller BB button tuners. The Custom Shop 000 is the perfect guitar for any discerning collector or musician.

The sitka spruce top incorporates Martin's VintageTone System (VTS), which ages the wood, making this acoustic a portal to the past. The back and sides are Wild Grain East Indian rosewood. European flame maple binding outlines the back and soundboard. Finished in gloss nitrocellulose with aging toner, this Martin has the warm glow of a vintage instrument, with more of a satin texture.

The select hardwood neck has a modified V-shape profile, perfect for fingerpicking. The black ebony fingerboard has abalone snowflake inlays and is bound in flame maple.

Other features include Schaller gold GrandTune tuners, a modern belly-style black ebony bridge, and bone saddle and nut. It comes with a Martin 533E hardshell case with cabernet lining.
