Martin Custom Shop CSSC-2022 Spruce/Rosewood Acoustic-Electric Guitar

The CS-SC-2022 is packed with custom features, and it's the first Nazareth-made instrument with the revolutionary SC body style. It includes East Indian rosewood back and sides for a bigger and bassier sound than its predecessors, and it has a VINTAGE TONE SYSTEM® (VTS) top to give it that coveted aged Martin tone. It includes Liquidmetal® bridge pins, which add volume and style, and it comes with Fishman® Aura® VT Blend electronics. The look is further enhanced with European flamed maple binding around the top and the fingerboard and gold open-gear tuners. The CS-SC-2022, with its patented Sure Align® neck system, gives you full access to all frets so you can comfortably reach those high notes. It's also equipped with a low-profile velocity neck barrel that ergonomically accommodates your hand as you move up the neck, giving you the comfort and playability of an electric. Another patented feature is the internal soundboard recurve to add more bass response.
