The Martin 000-28EC Signature Model is a finely crafted homage to the pre-war guitar Eric Clapton used during his iconic MTV Unplugged performance. Its 000 body shape offers a beautifully balanced tone across all six strings, with East Indian Rosewood back and sides providing rich resonance and depth, while the spruce top adds clarity and brightness. The shorter 24.9" scale length, favored by Clapton, is perfect for fingerstyle playing and expressive bends. The modified V-shaped neck, made from genuine mahogany, ensures both comfort and control. Visually, the guitar shines with a 1935 sunburst top, intricate herringbone inlay, and a full gloss finish. Whether you're playing Clapton's timeless hits or your own unplugged tunes, this special edition guitar captures the tonal richness and playability that defined his legendary performance and career.
