This limited edition instrument is sure to become a collector's dream. It pays homage to the special grains famous for their use in beer production. The instrument is made with heavily flamed walnut back and sides, which lie in the sound spectrum between koa and mahogany. It produces a very pleasant warm tone. The top is crafted from sinker Redwood and complemented by European flamed maple with mother-of-pearl inlays on the front and a Guatemalan rosewood headstock and pickguard. The fretboard, rosette, pickguard and bridge are decorated with a combination of abalone, mother of pearl and wood inlays depicting hops and barley in various shapes. The instrument combines some authentic features such as a dovetail neck joint, bone glue construction and an old-style 1931 logo. It also has modern features such as Liquidmetal® bridge pins and a comfortable, high-performance tapered neck. This model is limited to 100 instruments and comes with a certificate signed by CF Martin IV.

The company CF Martin & Co., or Martin Guitars for short, can look back on a long company tradition and some innovative inventions. This primarily includes the development of the dreadnought form and thus the western guitar as we know it today. The family business, with its history spanning over 175 years, has shaped the music world to this day. The innovations that Martin made standard in guitar construction include guitars with 14 frets outside the body and X-bracing. This allows the top to be more stable and max. weight capacity thanks to glued strips on the inside of the carcass ceiling. To this day , Martin guitars are famous for their high quality and of course their sound and are very popular among guitarists. You can find a large selection ready to play in our shop or in our branches. In our Martin premium western guitar section you will also find a selection of the highest quality western guitar models from all Martin series.
The name of the US company Martin Guitars, actually CF Martin & Co., Inc., has stood for the highest quality and innovations in the construction of stringed instruments since 1833. When everyone thinks of Martin , everyone immediately thinks of the western guitar, as the company founder and German emigrant Christian Friedrich Martin helped the instruments take on the form that we still know and appreciate today. The company's inventions include special bracing (X-bracing), the neck transition at the 14th fret and popular body shapes such as the dreadnought guitar.
In addition to the classics such as the D, OM, J, 000 models, our range also includes custom shop models - as well as signature models from renowned artists such as Ed Sheeran, Eric Clapton or John Mayer. We also have the popular Martin Backpacker Steel and the Little Martin in our range.
Of course, we also carry a wide range of accessories such as the extremely popular strings from Martin. Our staff looks forward to your visit and will be happy to provide you with detailed advice.
