The Martin Custom Shop All Flamed Koa Grand Auditorium Acoustic Guitar combines the resonant tonewoods and comfort of a Grand Auditorium body with the stunning beauty of highly flamed koa. Designed for fingerstyle players and strummers alike, this acoustic guitar produces balanced, articulate tones that carry in any venue.
Premium Tonewoods Generate Warm, Nuanced Sound
The guitar's solid koa top, back and sides are responsibly sourced from Hawaii, imbuing your playing with rich overtones and a dimensional sound. The koa's striking grain pattern creates an aesthetic worthy of display when not in your hands. Scalloped X-bracing optimizes the koa's tonal properties, enhancing projection and sustain.
Comfortable Grand Auditorium Body Accommodates Any Playing Style
With its sloped shoulders and contours, the Grand Auditorium body rests comfortably against your body during long practice or performance sessions. Its size and shape produce tones with shimmering highs, balanced mids and controlled lows that suit fingerstyle, strumming and hybrid playing techniques. The modified low oval neck profile feels familiar, facilitating fretting hand mobility across the ebony fingerboard.
Premium Appointments Provide Visual Inspiration
Abalone diamonds and squares inlays traverse the fingerboard, catching the light to inspire your creativity. An antique white heel cap and rosette offer understated elegance. Gold tuners, a tortoiseshell pickguard and an ebony bridge complete the upscale aesthetic. With its blend of visual artistry and acoustic excellence, this Custom Shop guitar motivates you to reach new artistic heights.
