The popular Martin 000-28EC signature model is a meticulously crafted tribute to the pre-war guitar Eric Clapton played during his legendary MTV Unplugged performance. Its 000-sized body delivers a balanced sound across all six strings, with the back and sides made from Indian rosewood offering rich resonance and depth, complemented by a spruce top that provides clarity and brightness.

Its shorter 24.9" scale length, favored by Clapton, is perfect for fingerstyle playing and expressive bendings, while the authentic mahogany V-shaped neck offers comfort and control.

The guitar's aesthetic is enhanced by an antique-toned top, inlays, and a high-gloss finish. Whether you're playing Slowhand's classics or your own unplugged melodies, this special edition guitar embodies Clapton’s influence on acoustic music, delivering the same tonal richness and playability that marked his iconic performances and career.
