A Timeless Masterpiece – The Martin 000-42 Modern Deluxe
The Martin 000-42 Modern Deluxe is an instant classic, a stunning blend of vintage charm and cutting-edge craftsmanship from the master luthiers at Martin Guitar. This extraordinary instrument offers a fresh take on the revered Martin vintage aesthetic while integrating modern innovations that enhance its playability, tone, and overall performance.
At the heart of its rich, aged tone lies a solid spruce top featuring Martin’s Vintage Tone System (VTS), which recreates the warm, broken-in sound of a decades-old guitar. Traditional construction elements like a dovetail neck joint and natural protein glue assembly contribute to the guitar’s resonance and sustain, ensuring the deep, expressive Martin tone that has inspired musicians for generations.
Visually, the 000-42 Modern Deluxe stands apart from anything else in Martin’s production lineup. Elegant European flamed maple binding adorns the body, fingerboard, and headplate, adding a sophisticated touch. Complementing this refined aesthetic are gold frets, gold open-gear tuners, and an exquisite torch logo inlaid in pearl on the headstock, exuding vintage luxury.
Modern innovations take this guitar beyond tradition. Liquidmetal bridge pins with abalone dots and a composite carbon fiber bridge plate enhance volume and sustain, ensuring powerful projection. The redesigned slightly asymmetrical neck shape offers supreme comfort, allowing for effortless playability across the fretboard.
Far from being just another high-end acoustic, the Martin 000-42 Modern Deluxe is an exceptional instrument—one of the finest to ever come out of Nazareth, PA. This guitar must be seen, felt, and heard to be truly appreciated.
