D-200 DELUXE
Serial Number:
After 184 years, and in celebration of our two-millionth serial
number milestone, C. F. Martin & Co. is proud to introduce the D-200
Deluxe. In collaboration with renowned watchmaker Roland G. Murphy (RGM), this
unprecedented instrument is symbolic of the passage of time with a unique watch
theme displayed throughout the many highly decorative aspects of the model. A
classic 14-fret Style 45 Dreadnought is the basis for this work of art. The top
is crafted from highly-figured bearclaw Engelmann spruce that features an
aluminum rosette with guilloché engraving – a refined process of cutting
geometric patterns into metal that also appears on the stainless-steel tuning
machine buttons of the edition. The guitar's back of rare pre-CITES Brazilian
rosewood, is inlaid with spectacular watch gears cut from reconstituted stone,
mother-of-pearl, bloodwood, Hawaiian koa and ebony. The equally spectacular
soundboard inlays feature a minute track in mother-of-pearl, birdseye maple,
flamed Hawaiian koa and ebony, and a pickguard with pearl inlaid watch gears.
Yet another unique decorative detail is the triple-strand abalone pearl
striping that bisects the length of each side, referencing the early
Spanish-inspired instruments of C. F. Martin Sr. The maple bound ebony
fingerboard showcases watch gear mechanisms with the highest level of delicate
inlay art.
Each guitar is furnished with a newly-designed
wearable edition watch from RGM that references details from the D-200 guitar
design and bears a matching serial number with each edition instrument. Lastly,
each guitar comes in a premium aluminum Zero Manufacturing attaché case with a
built-in hygrometer that allows the interior environment of the case to be seen
without the need to open the case. Limited to no more than 50
highly-collectable pristine guitars, this instrument will be played and prized
until the end of time.
