Martin 1955 CFMIV Guitars SOLD

In 2010, a limited series – 55 each! — of Martin 1955 CFMIV guitars were produced to celebrate Christian F. Martin IV’s 55th birthday.

We’ve dug up a pair of these very limited production instruments, a D-18 (#40 of 55) and a D-28 (#24 of 55). They are brand new, with full Martin warranties available to the original purchaser.

The Martin 1955 CFMIV guitars are built to match Martin’s 1955 production specifications, with the exception of using Madagascar rosewood instead of Brazilian.

Martin D-18 1955 CFMIV, #40 of 55: $3399.00 CAD including case.
