Guitars • Martin Johnny Marr 7 string acoustic?

Johnny Marr and Martin have teamed up for a signature seven-string guitar, and if that sounds wholly radical on the face of it, the instrument itself could not be more on-brand for Marr’s trademark acoustic sound.

That’s because the M-7 Johnny Marr acoustic is not your typical seven-string. Its seventh string is an octave G, and by doubling up on that G string he has some extra midrange jangle, which can give his chord work some of the textural qualities of a 12-string, or that illusion that the guitar is multi-tracked.
