Description
Note: This instrument was on display in the Martin booth for Winter NAMM 2020. As a result, the guitar has some cosmetic flaws due to play. It is a new instrument with a full manufacturer's warranty.
From Martin:
Classic styling with a tight-waisted jumbo body shape, the J-40 is constructed from East Indian rosewood back and sides, a Sitka spruce top, and a hand-fit dovetail neck joint. It produces a tone that is beautifully balanced with powerful response and projection, enhancing the art of the singer-songwriter and session player. Boasting gold open geared tuners and Martin’s most comfortable high performance neck, this rare Martin body size has polished gloss finish and a Jumbo tone to set you apart.
