The Martin 000-28 EC Eric Clapton Signature pays tribute to one of the most iconic acoustic performances in modern music history — Clapton’s unforgettable MTV Unplugged session. Modeled after the pre-war 000-28 he famously played, this signature edition captures the warmth, intimacy, and expressive nuance that defined that era of Slowhand’s sound. Finished in a stunning 1935 Sunburst, it blends vintage-inspired appointments with timeless Martin craftsmanship.

The 000-14 Fret body size offers exceptional balance and articulation, making it a favorite for fingerstyle players and singer-songwriters alike. Solid East Indian rosewood back and sides provide deep, piano-like bass and shimmering overtones, while the spruce top adds clarity and dynamic response. The shorter 24.9" scale length gives the strings a slightly slinkier feel, perfect for expressive bends and subtle vibrato — hallmarks of Clapton’s acoustic phrasing.

The Modified V neck profile, crafted from genuine mahogany, offers a substantial yet comfortable feel in the hand, while traditional details like fine herringbone trim, zig-zag back strip, antique white binding, and abalone Diamonds and Squares long pattern inlays complete the vintage aesthetic. Whether you’re channeling “Layla” or creating your own unplugged masterpiece, the 000-28 EC delivers the rich, responsive tone and classic styling that made it a modern legend. Available now at Haggerty’s Music, this signature Martin ships with a sturdy hardshell case for safe storage and convenient transport.
