Introduced in the mid-1980s and made for only around a decade, the Martin J12-40(M) is one of the more uncommon 12-strings to come out of Nazareth, Pennsylvania. This used 1990 example, serial number 493781, combines a solid Sitka spruce top with solid East Indian rosewood back and sides on a generous 16" jumbo body. The result is a big, rich and shimmering 12-string voice, with deep lows, sparkling highs and the projection to fill a room. Abalone hexagon inlays on a bound ebony fingerboard and gold tuners with ebony buttons add a touch of elegance.
With onboard electronics, this J12-40(M) is ready to take its huge acoustic sound from the lounge room to the stage or studio. Its mahogany neck and 14-fret neck join make it comfortable to play, while more than three decades of ageing add to its character. As a pre-owned instrument it may show some signs of previous use, so please check the photos for a closer look at its condition. Comes with a hardcase
