Add to Compare2006 Martin D-50 Koa Deluxe Figured Koa/Premium Sitka #26 of 50 Made!, re-priced!
The Martin D-50 Koa Deluxe is one of the most rare and most ornate Martin guitars ever made. The sides, back, headplate, end piece, and heel cap are crafted from Martin’s highest grade of curly Koa. The soundboard is bookmatched from premium grade Sitka spruce with heavy bearclaw figuring. Internal X-braces are crafted from Adirondack red spruce, forward shifted to a position one inch from the soundhole and carefully scalloped for optimum tone.
Building upon the original Martin Tree of Life inlay pattern, the D-50 Koa Deluxe Edition features a genuine African ebony fingerboard inlaid with a freshly redesigned Tree of Life pattern cut and inlaid by Pearl Works. Every leaf, flower and stem of the Tree of Life is cut from highly colorful dark heart abalone, then painstakingly bordered with a thin band of mother of pearl. The thin pearl bordering creates a shimmering effect that is almost jewel-like in appearance against the black ebony background.
The Tree of Life pattern continues under the nut and onto the headplate where it terminates with the Martin script logo, also inlaid in abalone with pearl bordering.
The D-50 was the first Martin guitar that featured inlay on the instrument’s sides and back. Two pairs of floral designs appear on both sides of the back inlay strip, and on either side of the neck heel and endpiece.
The African ebony bridge and the polished black pickguard are inlaid with matching Tree of Life patterns, also cut from abalone and bordered with pearl. A special endpiece is cut from Brazilian rosewood and inlaid with the leaves from the Tree of Life pattern, then precisely boxed with abalone pearl inlay bordering. The heelcap, also of Brazilian rosewood, is inlaid with a Tree of Life flower and leaf motif.
The D-50 is bound with grained ivoroid throughout and is inlaid with highly colorful dark heart abalone at virtually every possible seam including the rosette, the top and back edges of the side binding, the perimeter of the back, the back inlay strip, the end piece, the neck heel area on the body, the neck heel area of the neck, the side profile of the neck and headstock, and the front edging of the fingerboard and headplate. Specific areas have been further enhanced with special herringbone pearl including the perimeter of the top, the area around the extension of the fingerboard, the inner ring of the rosette, and the center stripe of the back inlay strip.
Vintage styled Waverly gold plated brass tuning machines with vintage style butterbean knobs are delicately and individually hand engraved. The nut, saddle. bridge pins and end pin are all crafted from genuine fossilized ivory. The bridge pins and end pin are further enhanced with star sapphire inlays and bordered in 14-karat gold settings.
In keeping with the premium elements of this special instrument, each D-50 Deluxe Edition comes with a very special genuine top-hide leather 5-ply hardshell case, padded and lined with crushed burgundy velvet and equipped with an onboard humidity/temperature gauge.
Each is numbered and signed by C.F. Martin IV on a special inside label. The new list price of this limited edition guitar was $50,000.00

Add to Compare1922 Martin 2-17 Mahogany/Mahogany All Original!!
The tiny 2-17 was one of the smallest instruments produced by the Martin Company. With its mahogany top, back, and sides, the 2-17 of the 1920s was very popular and, according to Martin historian Walter Carter, by 1926 the 2-17 was accounting for twenty-eight percent of the company’s guitar sales. Jimmie Rodgers played a 2-17 early in his career, as did several other country and blues singers. This little guitar is a beast with a strong fundamental voice that’s wonderful for blues with it’s fast decay. We’ve had the bar frets dressed and a bone nut made so it plays perfectly.

Here we have an amazing sounding pre-war Martin 000-18 that is all original but for the pickguard and case.

Add to Compare1959 Martin D-28E Brazilian/Adirondack Red
This is a masterfully restored Martin D-28 by Randy Lucas. Randy purchased this as a 1959 D-28E because of its amazing Brazilian Rosewood and painstakingly restored it to mid 1930s specs. See the letter below detailing the lengths to which Randy went to bring to life a mid 1930s D-28. The result is an instrument with all the pre-war tone but with modern quality and condition. None of the usual pre-war issues and flaws exist, this guitar is perfectly playable with unbelievable tone. Randy is regarded as one of the foremost Martin authorities in the country and this is a very special guitar because of his knowledge and dedication to the construction techniques and specifications of the Martin Company. He even reconstructed a T-bar neck. This is truly a better instrument than even a usual 1950s Martin would have been. It is much more similar to a 1930s instrument in every way. If you’ve dreamt of a 1930s Martin at a price lower than a new Brazilian Martin would cost, this is for you.
