RARE! 2006 Martin 000-40S Mark Knopfler Ragpicker's Dream Signature Edition - 000-45S, Signed Label
Martin 000-40S Mark Knopfler Signature!
What a guitar! This one plays so easy and sounds glorious. It's a desirable Martin 000-40S Mark Knopfler Signature Model. Hand-signed label by CF Martin IV and Mark Knopfler. 155 made and these rarely come up for sale. For some reason everybody calls these 000-45S Mark Knopfler Signature Edition but to be clear they are the same thing. The guitar is in beautiful condition and was hardly played over the years. Comes with the original hardshell case and the case key. Please check our website for MANY additional photos! -kcvintageguitars
