Description:
Showcasing top, back, and sides of toneful, gorgeously figured solid curly mango, the CEO-9 is reminiscent of Martin's slope-shoulder acoustic guitars from the company's pre-WWII "Golden Era," with the notable exception of its 14th-fret neck join. The sloped-shoulder 00 body style offers a sound that is focused in the midrange for a dynamic, powerful tone with complex overtones.
Tasteful vintage-inspired appointments — including a comfortable modified V-profile neck, ebony fingerboard with Style 42 Snowflake inlays, copper open-gear tuners, and lovely gloss mango sunset burst finish — honor Martin's rich legacy while looking to the future. Here at Gino Guitars, we loved the Martin CEO-9 the first time we played it. If you're looking for a vintage-style acoustic with modern playability, the Martin CEO-9 should be right up your alley.
