Martin Guitars MA175T 011-052 Acoustic Lifespan

The company C.F. Martin & Co. or Martin Guitars for short can look back on a long company tradition and some innovative inventions. This primarily includes the development of the dreadnought shape and thus the western guitar as we know it today. The family business, with its history spanning more than 175 years, has shaped the world of music to this day. Other innovations that Martin has set as a standard in guitar making include guitars with 14 frets outside the body and X-bracing. This enables greater stability and resilience of the top thanks to glued strips on the inside of the body top. To this day, Martin guitars are famous for their high quality and of course their sound and are very popular among guitarists. You can find a large selection in our shop or in our branches ready to play. In our MARTIN premium western guitar section you will also find a selection of the highest quality western guitar models from all Martin series.

 The name of the US company Martin Guitars, actually C.F. Martin & Co., Inc., has stood for the highest quality and innovation in the construction of stringed instruments since 1833. When it comes to Martin, everyone immediately thinks of the Western guitar, as the company founder and German emigrant Christian Friedrich Martin helped shape the instruments that we still know and appreciate today. The company's inventions include the special bracing (X-bracing), the neck transition at the 14th fret and popular body shapes such as the dreadnought guitar.

 In addition to the classics such as the D, OM, J and 000 models, our range also includes custom shop and signature models by renowned artists such as Ed Sheeran, Eric Clapton and John Mayer. We also have the popular MARTIN Backpacker Steel and the Little Martin in our range.

 In addition, of course, we also carry a wide range of accessories such as the extremely popular strings from Martin. Our staff looks forward to your visit and will be happy to provide you with detailed advice.
