The Basics
Commemorating the 180th anniversary of C.F. Martin & Co., the design of this 14-fret Dreadnought is inspired by early 1800s Martin models. In celebration of this momentous year are custom inlays by Aulson along the fingerboard, bridge, and headplate. The body boasts "45" style appointments and Golden Era features on an Adirondack top and Madagascar rosewood back and sides.
