In the early 1970s, Martin Guitar was commissioned to design a fully black lacquered D-35 for country star Johnny Cash. Although Martin had never considered such a request before, a custom-made all-black D-35 was crafted for the "Man in Black." Cash continued to perform with his personalized D-35 on stage for the next 20 years. In 2006, Martin released a commemorative edition of the Johnny Cash D-35. As a new addition for 2019, the DX Johnny Cash pays homage to the history between Cash and Martin Guitar.
Designed in collaboration with John Carter Cash and the management team of the Cash Foundation, this guitar features a classic Dreadnought body shape built with a black high-pressure laminate (HPL) top, back, and sides. Like the previous commemorative edition, this instrument includes a custom fingerboard with star inlays and the "CASH" logo. Johnny Cash's signature appears on the rosette and label. This model is equipped with Fishman MX electronics and comes with a soft gig bag embroidered with the "CASH" logo. Additionally, it is strung with Martin's Authentic Acoustic Lifespan 2.0 strings. The DX Johnny Cash was designed to be an accessible and easy-to-play guitar for those wishing to honor the legacy of the legendary musician.
