MartinCustom Shop Dreadnought Style 45 Sitka Spruce-Wild Grain East Indian Rosewood Acoustic Guitar Natural
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Martin’s right-handed Custom Shop dreadnought combines a Sitka spruce top with Wild Grain East Indian rosewood back and sides. Its dreadnought body delivers projection and volume, while forward-shifted scalloped X-bracing supports clear, balanced response and a broad dynamic range. Players moving between fingerpicking and stronger strumming get a full, resonant sound with deep bass response. Style 45 snowflake inlays, abalone appointments, European flame maple binding, and a natural aging toner give the instrument its detailed visual treatment.
