*****ON HOLD****No. 1520. Includes original deluxe black Tolex Martin Hardshell case. No. 12 of this numbered series. Roger hand signed the label. From a large unplayed collection, smoke free climate controlled home. This amazing Artist Signature Edition Martin is in "as new" condition, never played, except for 2 little items: * The case has 1 latch that is missing half of the apparatus. * There are 3 miniscule top scuffs, about the size of a ballpoint pen tip. They're not deep & are said to have been there from the original shop. May buff away, but too tiny for us to fuss with.OVERVIEWUnique Roger McGuinn 7-String model with extraordinary tone.The new Martin D-7 Roger McGuinn Special Edition Acoustic Guitar represents one of the most unusual instruments in Martin's history. Featuring a doubled G-string, with the second string tuned an octave higher, the D-7 guitar captures McGuinn's signature "jingle-jangle" 12-string sound, but also offers the versatility to handle single-string runs, leads and bends. The extra power that the double-G lends to the mid-range sound is startling to both the player and the listener, and playing the 7-string is intuitive without requiring any special fingering. Both headstock and bridge on this unique dreadnought Special Edition are modified to handle the extra string. Seven chrome Martin tuners installed asymmetrically on the solid, squared headstock -- three on the bass side and four on the treble side -- provide smooth, easy tuning. The belly bridge features a distinctive point under the seventh string, a "dropped" seventh string anchor and special 2.225" string spacing. A 1-3/4" neck width at the nut provides plenty of room for the extra string and playing comfort similar to a standard six-string guitar. The Roger McGuinn Special Edition Guitar features classic Martin quality throughout. The solid Sitka spruce top, solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, and forward-shifted scalloped top braces assure rich, powerful tone. The D-7 Roger McGuinn Special Edition's top is tinted with vintage toner and protected by a polished tortoise-colored pickguard. Both the special nut and compensated saddle are fashioned from genuine bone. The body showcases a beautiful polished gloss finish, while the neck, back and sides receives a satin finish. Delivered in a hardshell case, each D-7 Roger McGuinn Special Edition bears an interior numbered label signed by Roger McGuinn.Model: D-7 Roger McGuinn Construction: Mortise/Tenon Neck Joint Body Size: D-14 FretTop: Solid Sitka SpruceRosette: Bold HerringboneTop Bracing Pattern: Hybrid ”X” ScallopedTop Braces: Solid Sitka Spruce 5/16Back Material: Solid East Indian RosewoodBack Purfling: Fine Pattern HerringboneSide Material: Solid East Indian RosewoodEndpiece: Grained IvoroidBinding: Grained IvoroidTop Inlay Style: Multiple Black/White BoltaronBack Inlay: Black/White BoltaronNeck Material: Select HardwoodNeck Shape: Modified VNut Material: BoneHeadstock: Solid/Diamond/SquareTaperHeadplate: Solid Black Ebony /Raised Gold FoilHeelcap: Grained IvoroidFingerboard Material: Solid Black EbonyScale Length: 25.4”Number Of Frets Clear: 14 ......Number Of Frets Total: 20Fingerboard Width At Nut: 1-3/4” ....Fingerboard Width At 12th Fret: 2-1/4” Fingerboard Position Inlays: Unique Diamond & Squares- Long PatternFinish Back & Sides: Satin FinishTop: Polished Gloss Top w/ Vintage TonerFinish Neck: SatinBridge Material: Solid Black Ebony....
