*Limited Edition* Martin CEO-11 European Spruce/White Oak New Horizons Blue Burst Grand Auditorium Guitar w/Electronics #1204
The limited edition Martin CEO-11 is a bold step forward in both tone and aesthetics, blending innovative craftsmanship with sustainable materials. Featuring an FSC-certified European spruce top and striking white oak back and sides, this grand auditorium guitar delivers a well-balanced, articulate voice with impressive warmth and clarity. The forward-shifted X-bracing and scalloped braces ensure enhanced resonance, while the flamed maple neck provides a smooth playing experience with its modified low oval profile and high-performance taper. Finished in a stunning New Horizons Blue Burst, this model stands out with custom inlays, European flamed maple binding, and abalone accents. Equipped with the Fishman Aura VT Blend system, it’s stage-ready with natural-sounding electronics that bring its rich tone to life. As part of a limited run of just 1,111 instruments, each CEO-11 is individually numbered and signed by Martin CEO Thomas Ripsam, making it a unique collector’s piece that plays as beautifully as it looks.
