USED Martin / Limited Edition 000-42EC [03]

Limited edition of 461! 000-42 Eric Clapton Model!

The first Eric Clapton signature model for Martin, released in 1995. It was produced in a limited edition of 461 pieces in honor of the famous album "461 Ocean Boulvard".
This is one of the rare pieces.
The label is signed and numbered by Eric Clapton himself.
Ebony fingerboard with snowflake inlays, beautiful Avalon inlays, and ivoroid binding that recreates the high-end specifications of the 1930s.
With a Sitka spruce top, East Indian rosewood back and sides, and using only the best woods this guitar has to offer, the sound and playability are truly top class.
The sound and playability of this guitar are top-notch, not only for fingerpicking, but for any kind of lead playing.

The cell binding on the back side has a groove just below the neck heel due to binding shrinkage.
The nut groove has been cut deeper and the saddle has been replaced (cow bone).
L.R. Baggs Element Active pickups are installed. The metal parts of the pegs are tarnished.
There are some other minor scratches, but the guitar looks clean for a guitar made in the mid 1990's. The neck is in good condition.

The neck is in good condition with a little twist. The frets have been rubbed together and are approximately 80% high. The string height is about 2.5mm at the 12th fret of the 6th string and about 2.0mm at the 12th fret of the 1st string.
Both playability and sound are perfect, with a solid volume, confident vibration throughout the guitar, and overflowing, brilliant overtones characteristic of the 40s.
This is a valuable guitar, but it has specifications that allow it to be used well with plug-ins.
