Martin DX Johnny Cash Acoustic Guitar – Black

This item was returned in great condition. It looks and plays like new with only minor signs of use slight scuffs etc.. In the early 1970s Martin Guitar was commissioned to design an all-black lacquered D-35 for country star Johnny Cash. Though Martin had never considered such a request before an all-black D-35 for the Man in Black was custom-made. Cash went on to play his custom D-35 on stage for the next 20 years. In 2006 Martin released a commemorative D-35 Johnny Cash edition. The 2019 DX Johnny Cash is a nod to the history between Cash and Martin Guitar. Designed in collaboration with John Carter Cash and the Cash Foundation management team the guitar features a classic Dreadnought body shape constructed with Jett black high-pressure laminate HPL top back and sides. Like the earlier commemorative edition this instrument includes a custom fingerboard inlaid with stars and the CASH logo. Johnny Cashs signature appears on the rosette and label.
