Do your best to find another retailer who can match us; you will not find any.

We have a Martin Ditson III model guitar for sale!

This guitar is new and unsold from 2006.
It is pictured with one of our custom-made cejilla flamenca guitar capos (not included).
This is such an inspired and fantastic instrument.
It is a BIG guitar for BIG people that play BIG music with BIG notes and chords.
Howlin' Wolf would have loved it.
Wide string spacing to really dig in and get the most out of every note.
It has great volume and projection due to it's size but does not get soggy sounding or too bassy, even when played forcefully (try saying that about those vintage J acoustic guitars...)
Great dimension of tone from the guitar making it a great candidate for driving rhythm or acoustic slide guitar.
All it needs is the right player to inspire.

Additional pictures can be provided upon request.
