When a nervous young truck driver showed up at the Sun Records’ studio in Memphis on a hot July day in 1954 he wasn’t expecting to make history. Neither were popular local musicians Scotty Moore and Bill Black who had grudgingly agreed to audition the fledgling singer as a favor to Sun boss Sam Phillips. The session wasn’t going particularly well and the seasoned musicians weren’t impressed when the newcomer started fooling around between takes. Twisting the popular boogie-woogie music of the day with the bluesy gospel rhythms and fast-picking hillbilly tempos of his youth, Elvis Presley created a fresh, new sound that electrified the room. “Get that on the radio and they’ll run us out of town,” Black said at the end of the session. Airing for the first time on July 8, 1954, That’s All Right launched Elvis Presley’s career and forever changed American music.

His partner on stage during those heady early days was the Martin D-28 Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar. In commemoration of the King of Rock and Roll’s legacy to music, Martin’s master luthiers have created this incredible Elvis Presley Special Edition acoustic guitar. Selecting only the most resonate tonewoods, Martin’s master craftsmen have used East Indian rosewood to craft the back and sides of this fine instrument and carved the top from Carpathian spruce to produce a responsive guitar with impressive volume, punch and sustain. Bound in grained ivoroid, the Martin Special Edition D-28 Elvis Presley Acoustic Guitar will make a unique and handsome addition to any guitar collection.
