Celebrate three decades of Eric Clapton's legendary collaboration with Martin Guitar with the 000-EC 30th Anniversary acoustic. Available only through March 2026, this milestone model features solid East Indian rosewood back and sides and a solid spruce top for a rich, resonant tone, accented by fine herringbone trim and antique white binding. This limited-edition signature model is further distinguished by its genuine mahogany neck and Authentic 1939 shape, inspired by the pre-war Martin Eric played during his iconic MTV Unplugged performance. Not only does it offer a shorter scale length, but vintage-inspired touches include a slimmer nut width and Golden Era 42-style snowflake inlay on its ebony fingerboard, combining classic looks with effortless playability. Each guitar includes a paper label with Eric's pre-printed signature, a printed certificate of authenticity to further commemorate our longstanding partnership, and a premium, embroidered case. It even comes strung with Clapton's Choice phosphor bronze strings for his preferred sound and feel, plus an extra set in the case pocket.
