About This Martin Custom Shop Guitar
Martin Custom Shop Americana Backbone 00 28 Engelmann Indian Floor Model #2767237
This guitar was purchased and returned because Modified V Neck was too much for the poor fella. In the midst of trying it, he put some very feint pick marks in the area where a pickguard would be. Check the pic. Save money on this floor model.
Reno's Music is an Authorized Martin Guitar Dealer who has collaborated with Pop Americana to create a series of one-of-a-kind Martin Custom Shop Guitars. Pop Americana created the art for the sole purpose of adorning the Top of these guitars. This guitars are one of a kind and exclusive to Reno's Music - GuitarHotline. I handpicked the tonewoods for the builds while at a Martin factory visit.
Martin processes the artwork down into a very high-quality image that they can print on the top before the finish is applied over it. They plan to release an official statement about the process, but they haven’t gotten it completely ready to release yet.
Behind the Art is a very real and very cool guitar. The 00 Slope Shouldered body size is very comfortable and fun to play. Seeing some of the grain through the art is awesome! The Engelmann Top is great in a small bodied Martin. It offers a beautiful tone rich with overtones!
