2024 Martin 000-42

SOLD  With a Martin 000-42 it’s difficult not to mention the looks before the sound – it really is Martin craftsmanship at it’s best, and one of the most coveted models from Martin’s Standard Series. The 45 style Abalone binding and snowflake inlays are really quite opulent, and the gold open back butterbean tuners are the finishing touch. When you stop admiring the beauty, and start playing the guitar, it’s quite breathtaking. It plays like a dream. The tone is wide and varied. Fingerpicked it allows you to play with great subtlety, flatpicked it has real bite and depth, and strummed the sound is quite orchestral. A real all rounder. At less than a year old it’s in excellent condition, and comes in it’s original deluxe hard case.
