The Martin CEO-11 is a striking, limited-edition acoustic-electric that blends artistry and craftsmanship in a way only Martin can. Designed by President and CEO Thomas Ripsam, this Grand Auditorium 0000 (M) model features a Figured White Oak 3-pieceback and sides paired with an FSC certified European Spruce top, offering a rich, dynamic sound that’s both powerful and warm. The eye-catching New Horizons blue burst top create a look that’s as bold as the sound it creates. Unique inlays, including a custom Abalone Pearl Unalome symbol on the headplate, add a personal touch that speaks to finding your creative path. With a two-piece flamed maple neck, European Flamed Maple Binding, and scalloped Spruce X bracing, the CEO-11 invites you to connect with your sound and express yourself fully.
It comes equipped with Fishman Aura VT Blend electronics, custom-voiced to Thomas’ preference, ensuring that its tone stands out wherever you play. The number 11, a “master number” that symbolizes intuition and creativity, aligned perfectly with the guitar’s artistic vision, acting as a subtle reminder of the journey every artist takes to find their true voice. Limited to only 1,111 models (this one is #178), the CEO-11 is built for players looking to make a statement – sonically and visually – while staying true to Martin’s legacy of unleashing the artist within. Includes a blue paper label signed and numbered by Thomas and a Martin molded hardshell case.
Includes hardshell case and Lifetime Warranty.
