Description
What makes this guitar special: Constructed with a tight waist and jumbo body, the Martin J-40 will give you everything and more. Well-versed in the arts of deep resonance and strong projection, this timeless balance between Sitka Spruce and East Indian Rosewood is furthered by an extended body size. Forward Shifted, Scalloped “X” Bracing and a Modified Low Oval neck shape with a High Performance taper also further the J-40’s exceptional in-hand feel. Detailed in the tradition of the Style 45s, it comes with a matching Style 45 abalone pearl inlaid rosette, CF Martin headstock, and dot bridge pins. This guitar boasts powerful sound ideal for singer/songwriters on stage and in studio. If you’re after a jumbo that looks, sounds, and plays exceptionally well, then go with the J-40.

This Martin J-40 does show a few minor surface scratches/pick scratches, but is exceptionally well-taken care of and is still only a year old as a 2018 model. It is virtually spotless otherwise, plus, it comes with our Cream City Music signature setup!
