Overview

A tribute to Martin’s historic origins with premium craftsmanship.

The Martin Custom Shop Dreadnought Cherry Hill is a special model that commemorates the relocation of Christian Frederick Martin from Manhattan to Cherry Hill in 1839. This unique guitar features elegant cherrywood back and sides paired with a crisp spruce top, delivering a balanced tone with warmth and clarity. Bound with stunning flamed maple and natural fiber inlays, this guitar is as beautiful to the eyes as it is to the ears, celebrating a significant chapter in Martin’s history.

Cherrywood for Warm, Resonant Tone

The back and sides of the Cherry Hill Dreadnought are crafted from cherrywood, known for its balanced tonal qualities. Cherrywood offers a warm, rich sound with excellent sustain, making it a perfect complement to the bright and articulate spruce top. This combination creates a well-rounded tonal palette that suits a variety of playing styles.

Spruce Top for Clear, Articulate Sound

The spruce top on this Custom Shop model provides clarity and projection, ensuring that every note rings out with precision. The X-brace scalloped bracing enhances the top’s responsiveness, giving the guitar a dynamic, open sound that is ideal for both fingerpicking and strumming. The aging toner adds a vintage aesthetic, completing the timeless look of this guitar.

Flamed Maple Binding and Elegant Details

The Cherry Hill Dreadnought is adorned with flamed maple binding and natural fiber inlays, adding an extra layer of elegance to the instrument’s design. The ebony fretboard features diamond and squares long inlays, while the nickel open gear tuners ensure smooth, accurate tuning. With its combination of luxurious materials and superior craftsmanship, this guitar is a standout in both sound and appearance.
