Description
This guitar is extremely limited and on the way and available as a Pre-order!
The Custom Shop M Paisley Ember Burst is a standout new creation from the Martin Custom Shop, designed by President and CEO Thomas Ripsam. Available for one year only, this M/0000-sized model pairs a beautifully detailed Engelmann spruce top—featuring a custom paisley pattern enriched with iconic Martin design elements—with quilted maple back and sides, all unified by a warm Ember Burst finish. Forward-shifted Golden Era-scalloped bracing gives it a clear, responsive voice, while the GE Modified Low Oval neck delivers a vintage-inspired feel with modern comfort. Premium details include flamed maple binding, custom abalone snowflake inlays, Waverly gold tuners, LR Baggs Anthem electronics, and a custom label hand-signed by Thomas. It’s a refined, premium instrument made for players and collectors who want something truly distinctive.
