Description
 
This Guitar Ships FREE in the USA

This Martin Car Talk acoustic is a really, really nice guitar. Sound wise it is very clear and true with a hint of more sparkle on the treble side. Very easy to play and perfect for all style although it really shines when you do heavy strumming. You can't beat the unique look. The Martin Car Talk Click and Clack Special Edition is a classic dreadnought guitar. Cartoonist and illustrator Bill Morrison, responsible for much of the artwork on the award-winning Car Talk website, created some amusing designs for this unique musical instrument.

Our price includes personalized set up, hardshell case, and free shipping to the continental United States.

Have this guitar Plek'ed for an additional $125

All of our acoustic guitars are kept in a locked and humidified room (45%) and have been professionally setup.
