Description
New from Martin is the LE Cowboy 2016, guitar with striking aesthetics, and exceptional 000-12 fret tone. This guitar has a truly unique look, thanks to stunningly detailed, cowboy-themed art by renowned artist William Matthews. Known for his watercolor renderings of old west cowboys, this guitar is perfect for fans of Matthews, or players who want a little bit of Wild West flair on their six-string. The LE Cowboy 2016's 12-fret auditorium body features a solid Sitka Spruce top, which combines with gorgeously figured Quilted Mahogany back and sides. This tonewood combination and body shape make the guitar great for a variety of styles, but exceptional at fingerpicking. It's still a great strummer, and has a punchy midrange, with Martin's Vintage Tone System providing remarkable tonal definition. Other aesthetic features, such as the headstock's "saddle" inlay, keep the cowboy theme alive and well throughout the guitar. Grained ivoroid binding, an ebony bridge and fingerboard, and abalone fingerboard inlays add an extra level of visual flair. If you're looking for a guitar with truly unique aesthetics, and unmatched tone, then the LE Cowboy 2016 is the perfect choice.
