Resonant tonewoods and vintage appointments merge with modern playability.
The Martin Custom Shop 45 Style Adirondack VTS-Guatemalan Rosewood Dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar brings together the best of vintage craftsmanship and modern innovation. Built using premium tonewoods like Adirondack spruce and Guatemalan rosewood, it produces a rich, complex acoustic tone. The scalloped X-bracing and Vintage Tone System (VTS) treatment give it the lively, organic sound of vintage Martins. With the L.R. Baggs Anthem pickup and preamp, your acoustic tone comes through naturally when plugged in. Appointments like the compensated bone saddle and Plek'd neck make this guitar effortlessly playable. From the vintage style inlays and gloss finish to the forward-shifted bracing, this Custom Shop Martin guitar balances vintage vibe with modern playability.
Resonant Tonewoods With Guatemalan Rosewood Back and Sides
The back and sides are constructed from rare, highly figured Guatemalan rosewood, prized for its rich overtones, projecting bass and shimmering highs. This tonally balanced rosewood complements the articulate Adirondack spruce top beautifully. Together, these tonewoods create impressive volume, sustain and harmonic complexity. The neck is genuine mahogany for stability and balanced tone. With its 25.4" scale length and 1 3/4" nut width, the Custom Shop 45 Style feels familiar and comfortable in your hands.
State-of-the-Art Electronics With L.R. Baggs Anthem Pickup and Preamp
This acoustic-electric dreadnought features the LR Baggs Anthem pickup system, designed to capture your guitar's true, vibrant tone.

The preamp includes flexible tone shaping and a tuner, letting you sculpt your amplified tone. Just plug in and the Anthem pickup faithfully reproduces the Custom Shop 45 Style's dynamics and rich harmonics.

With its comfortable modified low oval neck, high-performance taper and plek'd setup, this Custom Shop 45 Style plays like a dream. The ebony fingerboard has a 16" radius for smooth, fast fingering. The Modern belly bridge provides accurate intonation, while the compensated bone nut enhances sustain. With its elegant appointments like pearl snowflake inlays, antique white binding and tortoise pickguard, this guitar is a work of art.
