A Dreadnought Built for Boldness — Classic Martin Power with Wild Grain Beauty

This Martin Custom Shop Dreadnought is a serious statement piece for players who demand tonal horsepower without sacrificing visual artistry. Crafted from premium Wild Grain East Indian Rosewood, this guitar’s back and sides are filled with mesmerizing natural textures, offering all the richness and resonance rosewood is famed for—with an extra touch of visual drama.

Topped with an Adirondack Spruce top and built with forward-shifted, scalloped Golden Era bracing, this dreadnought explodes with wide-open bass, bold mids, and brilliant high-end sparkle. It’s a cannon for bluegrass flatpicking, a powerhouse for singer-songwriters, and a bold statement for anyone who wants that iconic Martin dreadnought presence.

The Modified V neck profile brings a slightly vintage feel, balanced perfectly by the High Performance Taper that makes movement up the neck effortless and fast. Subtle herringbone purfling, a faux tortoise pickguard, and the Golden Era headstock decal complete the look, blending historic style with modern playability.

Ready to roar, ready to record, and ready to inspire—this Custom Shop creation brings the best of Martin's legendary DNA with a fresh and rare Wild Grain twist.
