Featuring a K-sized 12-fret body fitted with a 14-fret neck—an unprecedented first for Martin—it delivers extra projection and clarity while keeping the deep, powerful voice that shaped the Dreadnought’s origins. Crafted with striking broad-flamed koa back and sides, a reclaimed spruce top—used only once before in Martin’s history—in a dark toasted burst, and adorned with ornate hibiscus inlays, it’s as visually captivating as it is sonically rich. Style 42 details, Madagascar rosewood binding, and Waverly® tuners with Liquidmetal® posts add luxury and performance. Limited to just 100 guitars, the K-42 Hibiscus is the newest member of the Martin O’ahu family—an instrument where heritage and artistry meet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eSPECS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight: 4.8 lbs \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCase: Hardshell Case \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYear: 2026\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTop Material: Sitka Spruce Reclaimed\u003cbr\u003eFinish Top: Gloss\u003cbr\u003eTop Color: Dark Toasted Burst\u003cbr\u003eTop Inlay Material: Abalone with Multi-Stripe\u003cbr\u003eTop Detail: None\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Madagascar Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eBridge Material: Ebony\u003cbr\u003eBridge Style: Modern Belly Pyramid- Drop in Saddle\u003cbr\u003eBridge String Spacing: 2 5\/32\"\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pin Material: Liquidmetal®\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pin Dots: Abalone\u003cbr\u003ePickguard: Faux Tortoise\u003cbr\u003ePickguard Inlay: None\u003cbr\u003eRosette: Style 45 Multi-Stripe\u003cbr\u003eSaddle: Bone\u003cbr\u003eSaddle Radius: 16\"\u003cbr\u003eBody Size: K-12 Fret with 14 Fret Neck\u003cbr\u003eConstruction: Dovetail Neck Joint\u003cbr\u003eBack Material: Figured Koa\u003cbr\u003eSide Material: Figured Koa\u003cbr\u003eBack and Side Finish: Gloss\u003cbr\u003eBack and Sides Color: Natural\u003cbr\u003eBack Detail: None\u003cbr\u003eSide Detail: None\u003cbr\u003eBack Purfling\/Strip: Style 45 Golden Era with Stripe\u003cbr\u003eBack Inlay Material: Multi-Stripe\u003cbr\u003eSide Inlay Material: Multi-Stripe\u003cbr\u003eBracing Pattern: X-Brace\u003cbr\u003eBrace Shape: GE-Scalloped\u003cbr\u003eBrace Material: Adirondack Spruce with VTS\u003cbr\u003eBrace Size: 5\/16\"\u003cbr\u003eHeelcap: Madagascar Rosewood with Multi-Stripe\u003cbr\u003eEndpiece: Madagascar Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eEndpiece Inlay: Multi-Stripe\u003cbr\u003eNeck Shape: GE Modified Low Oval\u003cbr\u003eNeck Taper: High-Performance Taper\u003cbr\u003eNeck Material: Genuine Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eNeck Color: Natural\u003cbr\u003eFinish Neck: Gloss\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 25.4\"\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Frets Total: 20\u003cbr\u003eNeck Joins Body At: 14th Fret\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Material: Ebony\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Width at 12th Fret: 2 1\/8''\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Width at Nut: 1 3\/4''\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Inlay Style: Hibiscus Design\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Inlay Material: None\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard Binding Material: None\u003cbr\u003eSide Dots: Abalone\u003cbr\u003eHeadstock Shape: Solid with Square Taper and Diamond\u003cbr\u003eHeadplate Material: Ebony\u003cbr\u003eHeadplate Logo Style: Martin O'ahu Script Overlay (Back of Headstock)\u003cbr\u003eHeadplate Binding Material: None\u003cbr\u003eTuning Machines: Waverly Gold w\/Liquidmetal Post w\/Abalone Dot\u003cbr\u003eKnob: Butterbean\u003cbr\u003eNut Material: Bone\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eSETUP \u0026amp; INSPECTED BY OUR TECH TEAM\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll of our guitars come with a FREE professional setup to a comfortable action as specified by that instrument’s manufacturer.

We never embellish, oversaturate, or misrepresent our images, so that your buying experience can be as much like visiting our showroom as possible. Keep in mind that various computer screens can show colors a bit differently, so the color on your screen may not match the real thing perfectly no matter how hard we try. Also, unless otherwise noted, we individually list and photo every piece of gear that comes through our doors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eHEAR A LIVE DEMO\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product__description\"\u003eExperience our innovative Video Appointment service!
