About this listing
Serial #: CS30297Body size at lower bout: 13 3/4".

A leader for Prestige by age 20, Martino became one of the most influential guitarists of his generation, working alongside iconic performers like Jimmy Smith, Jack McDuff, and Richard 'Groove' Holmes. When brain surgery almost ended his career in 1980, Martino taught himself to play again from scratch, earning the admiration of fans, peers and critics alike.The Gibson Pat Martino Custom was designed to the specs of its namesake, with a single cutaway, contoured mahogany back, solid tiger flame maple top, and twin f-holes. The successor to Gibson's innovative Paul Jackson Jr. model, the Pat Martino Custom has a hollowed mahogany body offering greater sustain and feedback resistance, yet distinctly lighter in weight than conventional solid bodies. The contoured 'snakehead' style peghead permits straight string pull across the nut, and the deep cutaway allows full access to the compound radius 22 fret fingerboard.This gleaming example is in great condition, complete with original paperwork, deluxe hardshell case and Custom Shop Certificate of Authenticity. There is minimal wear on this guitar with only a tiny nick at the headstock. A highly versatile instrument for the working performer, and a fitting tribute to a true modern Guitar Hero.Setup: Trussrod tension and neck relief adjusted; bridge height adjusted; bridge compensation set; bridge wheels and tuners lubricated; fingerboard and bridge oiled; body and neck cleaned and hand polished.Case: Original Gibson deluxe black arched plush lined hardshell case.
