CEO-9 Guitar
CHF 4'899.00

These guitars have been designed to satisfy the needs of a small, select group of the worlds most respected and most popular musicians. The John Mayer and Eric Clapton models are highest quality instruments for the demanding musician, true fans and collectors.
Johnny Cash fans have a choice of either a black D-35, just like the one he used to play, or the posthumous DX Johnny Cash for the fan on a limited budget.
Finally Martin regularly releases their CEO models in accordance with C. F. Martin IV. These are limited runs, using unusual woods, shapes or finishes.

Back and sides and the top of this exquisite 00 14-fret slope-shoulder acoustic guitar are made from curly mango. While this wood can still be considered a novelty to the guitar market it is a great tonewood and looks amazing. The look is completed with vintage copper open-gear tuners and a stylized script logo on a faux tortoise headplate. The modified V neck features an ebony fretboard. Each guitars label is signed by Chris Martin IV and numbered in sequence.
