The Martin 000-EC 30th Anniversary acoustic guitar celebrates 30 years of collaboration between Eric Clapton and Martin Guitar. Available only until March 2026, this limited-edition model features a 000 14-fret body with solid East Indian rosewood back and sides and a solid spruce top. The scalloped X-bracing enhances resonance and sustain, ensuring a warm, balanced tone with excellent projection. Fine herringbone trim and antique white binding give the guitar a refined and traditional appearance, making it both a visually and sonically exceptional instrument.
The neck of the 000-EC 30th Anniversary is crafted from genuine mahogany and shaped in an Authentic 1939 profile, inspired by the pre-war Martin Clapton famously played on MTV Unplugged. This vintage-style neck features a slightly narrower 1 11/16" nut width, making it comfortable for both fingerstyle and flatpicking techniques. The ebony fingerboard is adorned with Golden Era 42-style snowflake inlays, combining elegant aesthetics with smooth playability. The short scale length contributes to a softer feel, reducing string tension and making fretting easier.
This model comes strung with Clapton's Choice phosphor bronze strings, known for their warm, clear, and well-balanced sound. These high-quality strings ensure the guitar delivers Clapton's signature tone immediately. An additional set of strings is included in the case, allowing players to maintain its premium sound over time.
For collectors and Clapton fans, the 000-EC 30th Anniversary includes a paper label with Clapton's pre-printed signature and a printed certificate of authenticity. Those looking for a more vintage-inspired option can explore the companion 000-42EC 30th Anniversary model, designed to replicate the guitar Clapton played during his Unplugged performance. With limited availability, premium craftsmanship, and a rich musical legacy, the 000-EC 30th Anniversary is a must-have for players and collectors alike.
