A now discontinued limited edition model, we were very lucky to secure one of the very last CEO-9's to be built.

Showcasing top, back, and sides of toneful, gorgeously figured solid curly mango, the CEO-9 is reminiscent of Martin's slope-shoulder acoustic guitars from the company's pre-WWII "Golden Era," with the notable exception of its 14th-fret neck join. The sloped-shoulder 00 body style offers a sound that belies the small body size with a real warmth to the sound, whilst focused in the midrange for a dynamic, powerful tone with complex overtones.

Tasteful vintage-inspired appointments — including a comfortable modified V-profile neck, ebony fingerboard with Style 42 Snowflake inlays, copper open-gear tuners, and lovely gloss mango sunset burst finish complete a wonderful small bodied acoustic. 

Supplied with a high quality hard case.

This is a one-off opportunity to secure a wonderful small bodied instrument. In stock in our Auckland store.
