Description

The C.F.Martin Wolfgang Niedecken guitar honors the famous German musician Wolfgang Niedecken and was made exclusively in the Custom Shop according to his "wishes & ideas" for a perfect guitar. 
The Martin HD-WN Wolfgang Niedecken Signature Custom Shop guitar. A dream of an acoustic guitar - an instrument for life with special custom upgrades!
On his current tour - which is just starting - Wolfgang Niedecken is playing the guitar live and with total dedication.
The instrument is unmistakably a "special piece" visually. The detailed custom artwork fingerboard inlays were designed by Wolfgang and are intended to make you "want to play the guitar" without being too overloaded. Paired with the classic 1935 Sunburst finish and the Herringbone inlays, the guitar is bursting with grace.

It's the inner values that count: 
But it's not just the looks that are beautiful. The feel and sound are the true greatness of the guitar, which Wolfgang Niedecken also appreciates. The existing scalloped 5/16" forward-shifted bracing (the top bracing) ensures perfect balance and nuances across the entire sound spectrum, which is a dream of a sound with direct and balanced basses, soft mids and crystal-clear trebles, as the top can vibrate even more freely. The flat neck profile with a nut width of 4.44 cm is already familiar from many Martin models, and Wolfgang also appreciates this profile because the neck is simply more comfortable to play. The special wood combination of spruce and rosewood (of course in solid construction) testifies to the special nature of this instrument. It is powerful and always assertive, but still offers plenty of room to reproduce fine articulations. Simply the way you would imagine a "special" Signature Martin to be.

The "HDWN Wolfgang Niedecken Edition" is - as requested by Wolfgang - equipped with many "custom upgrades", including:

  • Back and sides made from selected, solid East Indian rosewood
  • 3-A DOMLE 5/16" forward shifted scalloped "X" bracing
  • Solid ebony headstock with high-gloss lacquer finish to match the body
  • Ebony bridge pins with fine Paua inlays
  • Herringbone Boltaron 3-ring soundhole rosette
  • built-in L.R.Baggs VTC pickup system
  • Ebony fingerboard with Wolfgang Niedecken custom artwork inlays made of precious mother-of-pearl Authentic Wolfgang Niedecken signature at the 12th fret
  • Pure authenticity: hand-signed custom label by Wolfgang Niedecken
Visually, the HD-WN is closely based on the classic vintage models from Martin. The top has a 1935 sunburst finish, giving the guitar a classic vintage look. The high-quality, open Grover tuners for excellent tuning stability, the black pickguard and, of course, the typical Herringbone ornamentation around the body and sound hole.

Ready for the stage - including built-in pickup system:
The HD-WN is already equipped with the new L.R.Baggs VTC pickup - perfect for optimum pickup of the guitar. This was developed in close cooperation between Martin and the specialists at L.R.Baggs. A piezo pickup that significantly improves the sound and gives it a rich tonal character - adjustable with a discreet volume & tone control in the sound hole edge. The Session VTC pairs studio electronics with L.R.Baggs patented Element pickup for a clean, tidy stage sound. Designed to mirror the actual movement of the soundboard, a flexible sensor picks up the most sensitive nuances of the guitar for a detailed tone.

Custom Shop Expert selection:
The bracing used is particularly striking and convincing, the response is sensational. We are an authorized Martin Custom Shop EXPERT dealer - the highest distinction awarded by C.F. Martin to only one dealer in the whole of Germany.

Each guitar is individually signed on the custom label by Wolfgang Niedecken.
