Only 45 Available Worldwide!
The limited-edition Martin 000-45 Joe Bonamassa guitar is a remarkable fusion of history and craftsmanship, meticulously recreating Joe Bonamassa's cherished 1941 Martin 000-45. With only 45 units available, this exclusive model honors a golden era of guitar-making and embodies Martin’s renowned legacy.
Built to capture the authentic tones of a vintage instrument, the guitar features a top made of Adirondack spruce treated with Martin’s Vintage Tone System® (VTS), providing a warm, resonant sound. Paired with VTS-treated Adirondack spruce X bracing and Guatemalan rosewood back and sides, the 000-45 Joe Bonamassa delivers a full, balanced tone designed to inspire.
The original 000-45, with serial number 76993, is a storied instrument passed down over three generations and had stayed in Southern California since its 1941 purchase. Eventually, the guitar came into Joe’s possession when its sale helped save a woman’s home. Martin’s artisans honored every detail of the original, crafting a precise neck profile to match Joe's pre-war guitar and adding an adjustable truss rod for enhanced playability. Gold enclosed gear tuners provide a vintage touch exclusive to Martin, while the fingerboard’s snowflake inlays echo the design of Joe’s original.
This guitar also includes a certificate of authenticity, a vintage-style hang tag, and a period-correct hardshell case, enhancing its collector appeal. With only 265 pre-war 000-45s ever produced, and just 45 of these limited-edition replicas available, the Martin 000-45 Joe Bonamassa guitar is a rare collector’s dream, representing a timeless piece of musical heritage designed to be treasured for generations.
