Description

This very special D-45, already the top model of Martin's lineup, is number 98 of 200 built for Martin's 200th anniversary. Featuring Martin's finest appointments and materials, this limited edition model also features a 1 3/4" width at the nut, snowflake markers on the neck and bridge, a brass plate inside recognizing the commemorative model, and the signature of CF Martin IV on the label. Christian F Martin's signature is adorned in pearl at the 19th fret.

The sound is pure D-45, with a gorgeous, responsive, full-bodied tone. The truss rod has limited adjustment ability, but it plays great currently with medium action. It is in excellent condition, especially for a 25+ year old guitar, and has been well taken care of by its previous owner. This guitar is equally a collector's piece and a dreadnought player's dream!

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
