RICK'S REVIEWS: Martinez Southern Star 6 Series Solid Mahogany Top Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar 0

Martinez's new Southern Star Series guitars combine traditional styling with modern production techniques to create a guitar that is as visually stunning as it is sonically beautiful.

The MPC-6C-NST features a solid Mahogany top with Mahogany back and sides, in a classic dreadnought cutaway shape. The solid Mahogany top will only improve with age as it is broken in. The neck is mahogany, and the fingerboard and bridge are made of TECH wood, which is a composite with great warp resistance.
