Martin CEO-7 - USA 2018

The Martin CEO-7 is a nod to golden-era small-bodied acoustics, blending pre-war aesthetics with modern playability. Inspired by the 1930s Gibson L-00, this 00-size, short-scale beauty delivers warm, punchy mids and articulate highs, making it an outstanding choice for fingerpicking, blues, and folk.

Featuring a solid Adirondack spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides, the CEO-7 has exceptional dynamic range and responsiveness. The V-shaped neck provides a comfortable vintage feel, while the 24.9” scale length makes for an easy, relaxed playing experience.

This 2018 model remains in excellent condition, with only light signs of handling. The binding is just starting to lift slightly at the waist, but it remains stable and does not affect playability. If you're after vintage tone in a modern, road-ready package, this one’s a gem - a stunning small-body Martin!
