Martin Acoustic Guitars - 2004 000-28B Brazilian Rosewood - #5 of 100 - Norman Blake Signature Edition
Description
This 2004 Norman Blake 000-28B is from the first year of production of this Martin signature model, and includes the upgraded Brazilian Rosewood back and sides. Number 5 of 100, with even fewer than that made with Brazlian Rosewood, this 000-sized body and 12-fret neck is a vintage guitar that never was, but combines a few signature specs from the flatpicking legend. This is a deep, full sounding 000, and with the bridge shifted towards the middle of the lower bout, it makes for a small body guitar that delivers loads of volume.
Here in Very Good condition, there is playwear and minor finish checking through out (see pickguard photo for example). A few dents here and there as well. This signature model includes the original Martin TKL hardshell case, includes original owner card and a photo of Norman and Nancy Blake both playing signature models. Interior label signed by Norman Blake and CF Martin IV.
