This is one of the most recognized and decorated Martin guitars with a sound that is in a class all it's own. With all of the vintage specifications that the pre-war Martins are known for, the D-45V has all the fullness, depth, volume, clarity, tone, and projection that one could expect of a guitar of this calibre. The 1 3/4" string spacing and "V" neck profile allow the player room to work between the strings for added accuracy and the low string height promotes easy string attack and responsiveness. This guitar is beautifully decorated with abalone inlays and binding, snowflake fingerboard markers, gold hardware, CF Martin peghead inlay, and a toroise pickgaurd. The D-45V produces a beautiful and pristine tone, plays like a dream, and is one of the most visually stunning guitars on the market today. |
