The Martin Custom Shop team knows how it’s done, and this 2013 D-45 Custom Shop proves it. They opted for a lovely set of Madagascar Rosewood for the back and sides with black ink lines (ditto with the headstock veneer), paired that with classic Adirondack Spruce on top for bell-like tonality and power, then dressed it all to the nines with a 45-style package. Complete with Abalone hexagonal inlays, rather than the more commonly seen diamonds & squares. So this Custom Shop model has the visual flair to match the quality and presence of its voice, which we love for its clarity and warmth, especially in the midrange where many other dreads would suffer a muddy response. Instead, this D-45 has lovely balance and note definition across the registers.

Few designs are more famous than a D-45 Martin guitar. This one comes from the custom shop with the Madi/Adi figuration and all the tone that affords.
Ah, this one mixes up great for chords and accompaniment. Lovely mix of warmth and articulation. Beautiful craftpersonship from tuners to tail, and a voice that’s sensitive enough for fingerpicking too.
