Martin Andy Summers Acoustic-Electric Guitar Natural
The acoustic-electric 000C-28 Andy Summers Signature Edition Martin guitar features a top with a unique black/white chevron checkered binding, while the back showcases a Style 45 multicolored back strip with distinctive black fiber borders.

The matching ivoroid-bound and mitered black African ebony fingerboard is inlaid in mother of pearl with Buddhist Mudra" (hand gesture) position markers at the 5th, 7th, 9th, 12th and 15th frets, the yin/yang symbol at the 17th fret and Andy Summer's signature between the 19th and 20th frets. Exquisite premium solid tonewoods add to the beauty of this guitar and contribute to its superb tone. The top is crafted from Italian alpine spruce, renowned for warmth, balance and impressive dynamic range, and matched to 5/16" scalloped bracing for clear definition.
