We’ve got a special treat in hand today. This 000-45 was built in 1983 to commemorate the Martin name which had by then thrived for 150 years. They only built 150 (of course), and this one comes in at #147! Brick-red Indian Rosewood back and sides paired with an Alpine Spruce top that’s aged nicely to a warm, amber finish. Slim neck with a 1 11/16” nut and a slick setup, this 150th Anniversary is an exquisite fingerstyle instrument that’s got enough headroom and power to handle strumming and flatpicking as well.

I love this guitar, it might be the aged Alpine top, but it’s wide open and feels like you’re playing 100-year-old guitar even though it’s a youngster at just 37 years old. Killer.
