It takes the direct, powerful voice of an 18-style dreadnought and adds a few elevated Custom Shop details that make this one stand out immediately.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Adirondack spruce top gives the guitar headroom, clarity, and dynamic range, while the Sinker mahogany back and sides add warmth, dryness, and a strong fundamental voice. This is the kind of dreadnought build that has the power for flatpicking and strumming, but still keeps the note attack clear and focused.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe top is supported by Adirondack spruce bracing in a forward-shifted X-brace pattern, with scalloped Golden Era hand shaping. That combination gives the guitar a more open, responsive feel while still delivering the punch and projection players expect from a great mahogany dreadnought.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat really pushes this build into special territory is the Brazilian rosewood detail work. The fingerboard, bridge, and headplate are all Brazilian rosewood, giving the guitar a unique Custom Shop feel while keeping the overall aesthetic rooted in classic 18-style simplicity. Long diamonds and squares inlays, brown faux tortoise binding, an Old Style 18 Boltaron rosette, and Grover nickel StaTite tuners complete the look.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe neck features a GE Modified Low Oval profile with High Performance Taper, a 1 3\/4\" nut width, and 2 5\/32\" string spacing. With a 25.4\" scale length, gloss body, satin neck, Aging Toner top, and 5-ply hardshell case, this is a standout Martin Custom Shop dreadnought with a strong traditional voice and a few very cool custom touches.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp
