Martin Cole

A fine and visually-striking cutway instrument, custom-built by English luthier Martin Cole in Brazilian rosewood and European spruce.

This custom instrument features a wide fingerboard with excellent string spacing for the right hand and a cunning and beautifully executed heel design that lays flush with the body at the 12th fret, allowing easy access to the higher frets.
