Martin CEO-9 Acoustic Guitar - Mango Sunset Burst

Our Take:

The CEO-9 from Martin channels the spirit of the Golden Era Martin parlor-style guitars, delivering warm, full-bodied tones from a small-yet-stylish 00-14 Slope Shoulder body size. Especially interesting about this model: the body is entirely made of Curly Mango wood, which not only gives it an incredibly unique grain pattern; it endows the sound with tons of warmth and subtle overtones that greatly compliment its aesthetic. With a standard taper Modified "V" neck profile and a gorgeous Mango Burst finish Curly Mango top, the CEO-9 is incredibly accessible, visually stunning, and considered by the WG staff to be one of the nicest Martins we have.

Martin's Take:

This exquisite 00 14-fret slope-shoulder acoustic guitar exhibits a curly mango top with a gorgeous gloss mango sunset burst finish, paired with figured curly mango back and sides. Other features include antique white binding and heelcap with multi-stripe border, a compensated bone saddle, Liquidmetal® bridge pins on an ebony bridge, and an ebony fingerboard with Style 42 snowflake inlay. The look is completed with vintage copper open-gear tuners and a stylized script logo on a faux tortoise headplate. The model also comes with a modified V neck for fast finger work. Each model includes a label signed by Chris Martin IV and numbered in sequence. This model is strung with Authentic Acoustic strings.
