Martin 000-28 Acoustic Guitar Eric Clapton Model

AA2973

Martin Acoustic Guitar Special Eric Clapton Edition 000-28EC

Based this model on Eric Clapton’s guitar of choice for his iconic MTV Unplugged performance. Constructed from East Indian rosewood, the visually stunning 000-28EC produces a well-balance tone.

The 000-28EC, introduced in 1996, has become one of Martin’s most popular stock models. Eric calls his 000-28EC "utilitarian... in the very BEST sense of the word." The 000-28EC model draws its inspiration from the 000-42EC in body size, shape and tonewoods.
