Here is an "Extremely Special Edition" Martin Dreadnought based on the famous show "Car Talk". It features a Master Grade Engelmann Spruce top with no run out, extremely tight and even grain, along with gorgeous East Indian Rosewood b/s. This is a limited run of just 25 guitars with this being #4, and this is THE ONLY one available for sale in the market right now.

For you collectors out there, this is an extremely rare 2008 Martin in Excellent condition, great saddle height with a straight neck and low action. And to be honest, this is one of the better sounding Martins I've played with a very clear voice, and an actual huge sound unlike some that just don't sound like it's size. The bass is not overbearing and the trebles are really full, nice balance with a voice that can fill the room.

The inlays really just speak for themselves, with parts of the car falling off the headstock and trailing down the fretboard, ending in both Ray & Tom's signatures. The pickguard features the end credits of the show. I don't think many have seen a Martin this unique before! Truly a rare gem.
