2011 Custom 000-18 GE Cutaway

Next to my Authentic OM-18, I think Martin hit it out of the ballpark with their GE series and this one is truly one of a kind. I've been on the lookout for a 000-18 GE, but when a cutaway came along at such a fantastic price, I couldn't resist.

This Custom Shop Martin was ordered to exact 000-18GE specs, but with a cutaway and thicker neck profile.  It has that Martin mahogany/spruce 000 sound - woody and airy, with a warm thump from the 000 body and shorter scale. Specs are below.
