Martin Custom Shop 00 Size 41 Style High Alt, Euro Spruce Top, Macassar Ebony Back And Sides

This Martin Custom Shop is a perfect example of their extraordinary wood options, appointments and build quality. Commissioned by us at Russo Music, this unique 00 41 style blends the best of both worlds in visual appointments and sound enhancements.

The High Altitude Spruce top offers an excellent high quality alternative to your classic Sitka or Adirondack top. Swiss spruce grows at higher elevations and at a slower growth rate which causes a very tight grain pattern, adding a focused, balanced attack to the guitar.

Unique to this guitar and the Custom Shop is the stunning Striped Macassar Ebony back and sides. It brings great low end and projection to the guitar which is a perfect complement to the guitar's smaller body shape. Since Macassar Ebony is generally a denser tonewood, this guitar will open up as time goes on, a gift that keeps on giving.

In addition this guitar features a gloss body, satin neck and polished headplate. The polished headplate has an alternate torch abalone inlay, as well as the ebony fretboard. The body also is bound with European flame maple and has select abalone outer-perimeter inlays.
