Overview
The Martin Custom Shop designed this elegant, limited-edition model which was inspired by the photography of Wilson A. Bentley known as the "Ansel Adams" of snowflakes. Granted exclusive rights to use Bentley's photos, which are in custodial care of the Jericho Historical Society, Martin specially selected images to create pearl inlay snowflake designs on the headstock, fingerboard and bridge. The model also features Madagascar rosewood back and sides paired with a Sitka spruce top, so you can be sure this guitar will sound as amazing as it looks.
