Martin OM45 Custom Shop Madagascar Adirondack 2013

Martin's OM45 is a top instrument in everything. Constructed from the finest materials with special embellishments, and with a superior sound. Over the decades, the Martin OM45 was never a standard model and mostly limited to special runs and custom orders. As a result, only a few pieces are made per year and are therefore rare. Built with the finest tonewoods, this Martin 45 model is a top notch instrument in both looks and sound.

The Madagascar rosewood back and sides and Adirondack spruce top are richly decorated with abalone purflings and the ebony fingerboard features abalone hexagon inlays. Tonally, the guitar falls exactly where you want it: a full sound with articulate highs and a big, warm bass.

This 2013 Martin OM45 Custom Shop is in very good condition. There are a few small dents on the top, and the pickguard shows light signs of playwear. The finish on the back of the body also features a small dent, along with some more noticeable signs of use. The binding has experienced slight shrinkage in places; the finish shows some minor cracks, and has been re-glued in two spots along the waist. Additionally, a new piece of binding has been inlaid near the heel cap.

This guitar has been carefully inspected for condition and playability, then set up to our Gold Standard by a luthier. We make sure it arrives in your hands exactly as it should: sounding its best, playing effortlessly and ready to be enjoyed from the very first note.
