The Martin 000-42 Modern Deluxe captures Golden Era elegance with contemporary sophistication. A spruce Vintage Tone System (VTS) top and Golden Era–style Adirondack spruce X-bracing recreate the resonant tone of a nearly century-old Martin. Martin use natural protein glue and a lightweight carbon-fiber bridge plate to enhance sustain, while exclusive Liquidmetal bridge pins boost projection. EVO gold frets and a slightly asymmetrical neck give great, modern, playability, while European flamed-maple binding on the body and fingerboard pairs beautifully with Waverly gold open-gear tuners. The stunning pearl bordering outlines the top, complemented by a pearl torch inlay on the headstock. Its 000 body delivers balanced warmth and brilliance—a perfect blend of vintage tone, luxury detailing, and modern comfort that combines to provide one stunning Martin acoustic.
This 2025 model is in “as new” condition and has been setup with a new set of Thomastik strings on board – comes complete with its Martin case with the unfitted ebony end pin in the case. A great chance to get this iconic Martin for nearly £2k less than the new price.
