MARTIN D45 Details
Martin D-45 Acoustic Guitar
The D-45 is the most ornately appointed guitar in the Martin line. Large 'C.
F. Martin' abalone letters adorn the headstock; abalone hexagon inlays (900
pieces of abalone pearl in the bindings++) are used as position markers on the
bound ebony fingerboard. Martin's finest selected tonewoods are used to build
each D-45. Other features for the 14-Fret Dreadnought include solid East Indian
Rosewood top, back, and sides, polished gloss finish, a hand-fit dovetail neck
attachment, and comes with a FREE case.
