Default Martin Custom 00 12-fret Madi/Adi **SOLD**

For all you double-0 lovers - and who isn't - here's a totally unique and killer little guitar from the Martin Custom Shop. Anyone who's played a CS 00 knows what projecting little monsters they are. Great nuance from this one - the tone can be intimate, balls-y, present, melodic, thumping. You get that click under your fingernails up the neck. A gas to play and just look at this thing....Condition is pristine - I can find one tiny nick on binding, that's it. Guitar came with K&K w/ external pre-amp installed. I have no need for these things so had it pulled out and put in proper NoJack endpin. Pickup is in case pocket and will be included. Guitar is finished in hand-rubbed nitrocellulose lacquer which is too cool to try to describe. It's slightly smaller than standard 00s, until you hit that first chord.
