[NAMM] M-30 Jorma Kaukonen

Here is what the company had to say:

“One can appreciate Jorma’s selection of Martin’s M body style (jumbo width, 000 depth and 25.4” scale) for his Custom Artist Edition; it handles everything from fingerpicking to flatpicking with ease. The M-30 Jorma Kaukonen Custom Artist Edition features a top of rare Italian Alpine Spruce and forward-shifted scalloped braces for full, saturated tone and impressive dynamic range. The top is paired with East Indian rosewood back and sides for rich, warm bass and strong projection, with an enlarged soundhole for enhanced midrange and treble response."

“The Modified V neck with diamond volute is carved from genuine mahogany.”

Each Martin M-30 Jorma Kaukonen Custom Artist Edition guitar is delivered in a Geib hardshell case, and bears an interior label personally signed by Jorma Kaukonen numbered in sequence without the total, and a second interior label depicting his Fur Peace Ranch.

Left-handed guitars may be ordered without additional charge and factory-installed electronics are an extra cost option.

Authorized C.F. Martin dealers will begin taking orders for the Jorma Kaukonen Custom Artist Edition immediately and participating dealers will be listed on the C.F. Martin website: www.martinguitar.com. Check that site for more details on this model.
