Martin CS-GP-14 in fantastic condition. Hide glue construction, Guatemalan Rosewood back with Cocobolo wedge, torrefied European Spruce Top. Top of the line Martin Custom Shop features. Factory Fishman Aura VTS pickup. One of only 50 made.

No issues, as it’s been kept in my temperature and humidity controlled guitar room at the studio. This was the actual guitar displayed at the NAMM show, so it’s got a choice wood selection. The torrefied European Spruce top adds a nice chimney treble to the guitar. It’s very balanced and has a ton of head room. Responds well to a light or heavy touch. The performing artist neck plays very fast. I’m selling to purchase a 00 size acoustic for the studio.

From the Martin Site:

Limited to 50, this grand performance, 14 fret non-cutaway model is built with complete hide glue construction. Both the rosette and fingerboard are inlaid with a concave diamond design made up of orange/red spiney recon stone with solid MOP. Looking as awesome as it sounds, the torrefied certified European spruce top is married with Guatemalan rosewood back and sides. The back also features a figured cocobolo wedge and the side sound port for the Fishman Aura VT electronics features a rosette ring. The mahogany neck with the performing artist profile has a carbon fiber neck rod. Great looks, great sound makes a great guitar.
