A winning merger of traditional and modern elements make this a highly playable and collectible instrument.
The Martin D 45V Acoustic Guitar brings together the best of vintage features and modern guitar technology. Featuring a solid Sitka spruce top, solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, and forward shifted standard X scalloped bracing, the guitar has amazing, balanced tone. A select hardwood modified V shaped neck makes playing a joy, whether you're strumming chords or whipping off a sparkling melody line. A Vintage Belly Drop In Long Saddle solid black ebony bridge and bone nut assure you'll get the most sustain and response possible from your guitar strings. In addition to the top quality hardwoods, meticulous craftsmanship is evident everywhere: abalone pearl inlays, ivoroid binding, select abalone pearl Style 45 Snoflake fretboard inlays, and a polished gloss with aging toner top finish all combine to create a guitar that bridges past and present with amazing skill.
