Description
Stunning, commanding Granada school, fan-braced guitar. Lucas Martin guitars sell for about $7000 to $8000 new, and you can only get them in a handful of places around the world. This one is in virtually like-new condition with only slight signs of honest wear under and around the strings that show in reflected light. See the last photo.
Why selling? I have three guitars in my shop and want to sell two to raise money for wedding bills. I can't decide between them because I love them all. So, I'm asking the market to decide for me. I'll keep whichever one is left once I sell two from my shop.

Lucas Martin makes guitars based on the design of his father’s (Bernd Martin) guitars, which have been developed and perfected over more than 40 years, and he is fortunate to have access to woods that have been carefully selected and aged over the course of decades - and in the case of this guitar, it features a particularly stunning set of maple with dramatic and flamed grain patterns (also with rare sap elements) for the back and sides - selected for this special milestone guitar, his 100th. Attention to detail is first-class, the fit and finish is among the best. Although he worked for many years with his father in the same shop, his guitars do have a character of their own - the headstock is slightly different in shape, the mosaic and inlays are similar but not exactly the same, and they possess a quality and character of sound that are also distinct. They are a perfect example of what the Granada guitar style is all about - easy to play, super responsive, lyrical and traditional.
The guitar ships in a used Crossrock carbon fiber flight case.
