Martin D Biosphere III Acoustic Guitar - Printed Top with Polar Bear Theme

Celebrate Earth Day with the D Biosphere® III, a meaningful continuation of C. F. Martin & Co.'s dedication to sustainability and environmental stewardship. Built entirely with FSC®-certified woods, this guitar goes beyond music as it represents a powerful message of awareness and responsibility.

This guitar features an illustration by Robert Goetzl, which captures a quiet, heartfelt moment between a polar bear mother and her cub beneath a glowing, icy sky. The imagery reflects both the beauty of the Arctic and the fragile future these animals face. This model also honors Polar Bears International, supporting their mission to protect polar bears and the sea ice they rely on. Martin has contributed to the organization's efforts, helping combat both immediate and long-term environmental challenges.

Featuring a Dreadnought body with solid sapele back and sides and a solid Sitka spruce top, the D Biosphere III delivers a rich, powerful voice clear, balanced, and full of depth. Elegant details like European flamed maple binding and sapele fingerboard inlays add a refined visual touch.

More than just an instrument, this guitar is a reminder of our connection to the natural world and a call to help preserve it for generations to come.
