Martin Custom Shop Model Ikebe Special Order Martin, a long-established name in the acoustic guitar world, continues to captivate the world with its sound, blending tradition and i nnovation handed down through its long history. The Custom Shop is the highest-end production line within Martin. They produce a wide range of instruments, from gorgeous show models to models that pursue a vintage feel to the utmost, but of course they also offer modern models made with the finest woods. This model is a custom order from Ikebe Musical Instruments, based on the D-45 and featuring a genuine mahogany body. While the all-mahogany model includes the regular "15 Series" such as the D-15M, this particular model uses genuine mahogany, selected according to Martin's own selection criteria, and is crafted from the finest wood stored in the custom shop. The neck is also made of genuine mahogany, with an ebony fingerboard. The specifications of other parts are the same as those of the D-45 Standard, and this has been deliberately set so that the difference can be felt. The sound has the powerful bass you'd expect from a dreadnought, but the midrange is packed in with the mahogany feel, making it very pleasant to listen to. The warm sound produces a gentle tone whether you play with your fingers or a strum. The overtones are also well-balanced, so the sound doesn't get crushed when playing arpeggios, and the response is neither too fast nor too slow, making it comfortable to play. The inlays stand out in contrast to the color of the all-genuine mahogany, giving it a unique appearance that is reminiscent of a custom-made item. This is a unique custom D-45 model that will give you the joy of owning and playing it.Size: D-14 Fret Finish Top:Gloss Construction:Dovetail Neck Joint Back & Side Finish: Gloss Bracing Pattern:Forward-Shifted X-Brace Scale Length: 25.4 Brace Shape: Scalloped Fingerboard Width At Nut:1 3/4'' Top Material: Genuine Mahogany Neck Shape: Modified Low Oval Back Material: Genuine Mahogany Neck Taper: High-Performance Taper Side Material: Genuine Mahogany Top Top Color: Aging Toner Bridge Style:Modern Belly - Drop in Saddle Binding: Antique White Bridge String Spacing: 2 5/32 Top Inlay Material:Abalone with Multi-Stripe Bridge Material: Ebony Top Detail: None Bridge Pin Material:White Plastic Pickguard: Faux Tortoise Bridge Pin Dots: Abalone Pickguard Inlay: None Saddle:Compensated Bone Rosette:Abalone with Multi-Stripe Saddle Radius: 16 Body Brace Material: Sitka Spruce Back & Sides Color: None Brace Size:5/16 Back Detail: None Back Purfling/Strip:Style 45 Back Inlay Material:Abalone with Multi-Stripe Heelcap:Antique White Side Detail: None Endpiece: Antique White Side Inlay Material:Abalone with Multi-Stripe Endpiece Inlay:Abalone with Multi-Stripe Neck Neck Material:Genuine Mahogany Fingerboard Material: Ebony Finish Neck:Gloss Fingerboard Width at 12th Fret:2 1/8'' Neck Color: Dark Mahogany Fingerboard Inlay Style:Style 45 Hexagon Number of Frets Total: 20 Fingerboard Inlay Material:Abalone Neck Joins Body At:14th Fret Fingerboard Binding Material:Antique White Side Dots: Black Headstock Headstock Shape:Solid with Square Taper and Diamond Tuning Machines:Gold Open Gear Headplate Material:East Indian Rosewood Knob:Butterbean Headplate Logo Style:Block Inlay Nut Material: Bone Headplate Binding Material:Antique White with Multi-StripeMisc Hard case included Show more
