This is one that the C F Martin company keep fairly quiet about, but it's actually not at all bad. All the electrics work and it plays just like a...EM-18. It's nicely made - no surprise there - and is an excellent example of Martin's attempt to cash in on the electric market.

Still, it's a solid wood Martin in very good condition, and you can be quite confident that you won't turn up to a jam somewhere and see another one.

This instrument has been withdrawn from sale - the owner decided he couldn't live without it after all. Takes all sorts...

The guitar is well made, as can be seen by this shot of the neck/body join
