Earliest X-braced Guitar (July 1842), Martin & Schatz Label, for Delores Nevares de Goñi - C.F. Martin Guitar Factory 2012-08-06 - 013
BY THE LATE 1830s, MARTIN HAD ESTABLISHED HIMSELF as a premiere musical instrument maker in New York City: ... Spanish-style guitar by C. F. Martin Circa 1845 ... Martin Style 3-17 1859 ... Earliest X-braced Guitar
Martin & Schatz Label, July 1842
For: Madame Delores Nevares de Goni
This is the very first Size 1 model and the
earliest X-braced guitar ever documented,
supporting Martin's longstanding claim as the
inventor of X-bracing, a primary innovation in
the evolution of the modern American guitar.
After entertaining her in his home, C. F.
Martin made this special guitar for Madame
Delores N. De Goñi, who was probably the
finest professional guitar soloist of her time.
Her performances were widely popular
throughout the Americas between 1841 and
1892. She pronounced Martin guitars to be
"superior to any instruments of the kind (she
had) ever seen in this country of Europe for
tone, workmanship and facility of execution!"
