The instantly recognizable John 5 is of course an in-demand metallurgist/shredder of the first order. Actually, though, he's a truly fine guitarist in just about any genre—especially country chicken pickin'—and he's just as blazing on acoustic as he is on electric.Features include a gloss Black body with chrome pickguard, solid spruce top, mahogany neck, back and sides, chrome die-cast tuners, a Florentine (sharp) cutaway, John 5 Telecaster headstock and Fishman Classic IV T electronics with built-in tuner.

While the simple appointments, understated satin finish, and modest price of this Martin D-15 Custom Acoustic Guitar are reminiscent of the 15 Series guitars of the 1940s, this model trades vintage all-mahogany construction for a select solid Sitka spruce top and the ringing punch and sustain of solid East Indian rosewood back and sides. The solid mahogany neck is also satin finished for fast, comfortable play.
