Martin CEO7 Adirondack Sunburst

For the seven limited-edition models of the CEO series, Martin’s chief executive officer, C.F. Martin IV, has designed new guitars that merge the company’s time-honored construction and materials with notable departures from tradition and lend some things from that other well known flattop producer..

Reminiscent of models from the “Golden Era”, the CEO-7 features a sunburst finish, golden age tuners and authentic headplate lettering. This 14-fret short scale 00 “sloped shoulder” model features a solid Adirondack spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides for complex tonality. This Martin lends itself to fingerstyle and especially blues, which produces a balanced sound with a good definition and very good bass for a guitar of this size.
