2011 Martin CS21-11
The guitar has a tremendous voice. Madagascar rosewood is a tonewood somewhat akin to Brazilian rosewood in both tone and appearance, and in combination with a scalloped-braced red spruce top and a hide-glue build, the guitar puts out bluegrass volume, huge headroom, a powerful and articulate bass end, and big full mids and trebles. It's an exceptional flat-picker.
In nearly perfect condition, the CS21-11 shows no real playwear to its finish, and only minor fretwear in the first position. There's a tiny ding on the volute, but no other flaws. Set-up lovingly in our shop with medium gauge strings.
With original Custom Shop hardshell case
