Inspired by Billy Strings' love affair with vintage dreadnoughts, it captures the spirit of these instruments in a more accessible version, while retaining distinctive elements.
Its solid spruce top delivers a clear, dynamic response. The Brazilian rosewood HPL back and sides add solidity and stability, which are appreciated both on the road and on stage. The 25" custom tuning fork, combined with a nut width of 1 23/32", ensures a comfortable fit for both fast lines and extended chords.
The selected wooden neck has a Modified Low Oval profile with Standard Taper, which feels good in the hand and is suitable for a variety of styles.

The Martin E1 electronics with built-in tuner make it easy to plug in live or in the studio. The open nickel action with butterbean buttons ensures stable tuning. Supplied with a soft hemp cover, it's a great everyday companion. This model stands out for its ability to convey the creative energy of Billy Strings in a left-handed version.
