Description

The Martin 000-42EC 30th Anniversary acoustic guitar celebrates 30 years of collaboration between Eric Clapton and Martin Guitars. Limited to only 300 instruments, this model is inspired by the guitar Clapton used during his famous MTV Unplugged performance. Designed to capture the tone and character of a pre-war Martin, it features premium materials and meticulous craftsmanship, making it an excellent choice for both collectors and serious musicians.  

This guitar is built with a solid Adirondack spruce top treated with an antique toner, offering a rich, resonant tone with excellent clarity and projection. The solid Guatemalan rosewood back and sides enhance warmth and depth, making it well-suited for both fingerstyle and strumming techniques. Inside, the scalloped Adirondack spruce Golden Era-inspired bracing increases resonance and sustain, ensuring a powerful, full-bodied sound.  

For playability, the genuine mahogany neck is shaped to an Authentic 1939 profile with a slightly thinner nut width, providing a comfortable grip for a variety of playing styles. The ebony fingerboard, adorned with Golden Era 42-style snowflake inlays, enhances both aesthetics and smooth playability. The combination of these features ensures a vintage-inspired feel with modern precision.  

Each limited-edition 000-42EC 30th Anniversary model includes a paper label hand-signed by Eric Clapton and a certificate of authenticity, making it a valuable collector's piece. The guitar comes factory-strung with Clapton's Choice phosphor bronze strings, with an extra set included in the case pocket.  

This exclusive Martin model is a tribute to Clapton's enduring influence and Martin's commitment to superior craftsmanship. With its exceptional tone, premium materials, and historical significance, the 000-42EC 30th Anniversary is a standout instrument for both Clapton fans and professional musicians.
