Martin Custom Shop 0 12-Fret Spruce-East Indian Rosewood Acoustic Guitar Natural

The Martin Custom Shop 0 12-Fret Spruce-East Indian Rosewood Acoustic Guitar is designed for acoustic musicians seeking a premium instrument with a bold yet balanced tone. Its 0 12-fret body joins the neck at the 12th fret, shifting the bridge back to create a warmer, more complex voice. The hybrid bracing further enhances the low end while retaining shimmering highs. Between its resonant woods and impeccable craftsmanship, this guitar produces a sound that is simultaneously earthy yet pristine. All-Solid Tonewoods Provide Rich, Nuanced Sound As with all Martin instruments, only the finest materials are used. The top is crafted from premium Sitka spruce, renowned for its strength, clarity and balanced tone. The back and sides feature beautifully grained East Indian rosewood, which provides a warm, articulate bass response. The modified V neck is made from mahogany for stability and sustain. Together, these tonewoods generate a sound that is at once full-bodied and intricately detailed. Scalloped Bracing Enhances Resonance and Projection The 0 12-fret's scalloped "X" bracing is carefully tapered and shaped by hand to maximize the responsiveness of the solid tonewoods. This traditional Martin bracing style produces a broad dynamic range with chime-like highs, a tight low end and rich overtones. You'll appreciate how the bracing allows notes to bloom and how chords ring with a piano-like quality. The crisp yet complex voice of this guitar will inspire your creativity. Premium Appointments for Superlative Playability As expected from the Martin Custom Shop, every detail of this guitar is meticulously executed. The modified low oval neck profile feels supremely comfortable and fast. The ebony fingerboard and bridge provide a smooth playing surface. Open-gear tuners keep the strings in tune through lively performances or recording sessions. Together with its alluring aesthetics, these premium parts make this an exceptionally playable instrument that you won't want to put down.
