The Martin HDC-40 Travis Tritt Limited Edition blends a unique body configuration and rare tone woods for superb playability and sound. The classic Dreadnought shape receives a rounded cutaway with the thinner "000" depth - exceptional premium tone woods include an Adirondack (red) spruce top matched to 5/16" Adirondack braces - back and sides of rare Madagascar rosewood - special modified low oval neck with diamond volute carved from genuine mahogany.
Many of the appointments on the Martin HDC-40 Travis Tritt Limited Edition are drawn directly from Travis's personal custom D-45. The Style "45" rosette, like the original, has a center ring of beautiful pearl herringbone. The polished and beveled black pickguard features a floral inlay in abalone pearl. Most spectacular of all is the genuine ebony fingerboard, featuring a colorful version of the Vine of Harmonics (created by Martin Artist Relations Manager Dick Boak) inlay in abalone pearl, mother of pearl and composite, culminating in Travis Tritt's signature in mother of pearl between the 18th and 19th frets.
The HDC-40 Travis Tritt Limited Edition comes studio and stage-ready with factory-installed Martin Gold Plus® Natural 1 active electronics. Each instrument is delivered in a fitted Martin hardshell case.
Every HDC-40 Travis Tritt Limited Signature Edition guitar bears an interior label personally signed by Travis Tritt and numbered in sequence with the edition total. Authorized Martin dealers will begin accepting orders until the cutoff date of September 24, 2007, after which the edition quantity and the names of participating dealers will be posted on the Martin website.
