On December 6, 2018 /

This C. F. Martin 000-18 custom shop model dates to 2015 and uses higher grade figured woods and subtle decoration to improve on a classic design. The first samples of the 000 body date to 1902, and one 000-18 was built, using Maple for the back and sides, during 1906. In 1911, three were made, and by 1923 sales numbers started to increase into the hundreds. In 1933, 14-fret necks started to appear and soon became standard.

❌ Sold ❌ C. F. Martin 000-28EC Eric Clapton Signature, 2006

On November 26, 2018 /

The C F Martin company based the 000-28EC model on the guitar Eric Clapton leaned on for his 1992 ‘Unplugged’ MTV performance. The C. F. Martin 000-28EC Eric Clapton Signature is a very well balanced guitar, producing wonderful results for fingerstyle and picking. As a ’28’ style guitar, it pairs a Sitka Spruce top with Indian Rosewood for the back, sides and headplate; the neck and body blocks are Mahogany, and the unbound fingerboard and bridge are Ebony. It has ‘Herringbone’ style binding – which would not have been on a 1966 model!

TESTIMONIALS

Now that I’ve had it for 24 hours all I can say is WOW!

Now that I’ve had it (Manzer 1980) for 24 hours all I can say is WOW! I took it in to my local L&M to order a new case for it and the guys were literally lined up to see and try it out. Also some patrons came over hearing there was a Linda Manzer in the store. Anyway, I do not regret the investment. Out of the 14 hours of ownership…. I’ve played for at least 10 and showed it off for 2. I think my Taylor 914ce will be looking for a new home. No comparison.

Thanks for everything.

Didn’t Intend On Buying Anything.

Just wanted to thank you Brian for facilitating the purchase of the 1970 Martin D18. I didn’t intend on buying anything that day and appreciate your help on getting it done. Thanks again! Pass along my thanks to the Luthier who took a look at the guitar and say hi to the rest of the crew down there, a friendly bunch they are.

Community support

Myself and some of my mates have developed a charitable organization in Toronto called Guitars for Kids Toronto. We provide new and previously loved guitars to underprivileged kids in Toronto through Big Brothers and Sisters. I was looking for a “drop-off” depot in the east-end, where guitar donations could be left for pick-up.
If you have been to 12th Fret, you would know that they do not have much room for stocking additional gear – especially not for sale gear!
Because 12th Fret saw the value in community support…they graciously signed up to become a drop-off centre and have helped to promote GfK Toronto through their newsletters, web pages and social outlets!
Special thanks to Vicki, Grant, Brian and the team for your continued support!

One Of My Favourite Guitar Stores in the World.

I love your store. You were my first dealer outside the US back in 1987, when I started THD. The 12th Fret has always been one of my favorite guitar stores in the world.
