Martin LX1E Ed Sheeran
Whatever you think of Ed Sheeran, there’s no denying the singer-songwriter’s social conscience: rather than make a signature model and watch the money roll in, a portion of the proceeds from the sale of each LX1E Ed Sheeran are being donated to the East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices – nice!
Ed’s signature model is also a pretty tasty little instrument, too, as you’ll see from our unboxing shots…
For the full review of the Martin LX1E Ed Sheeran, check out Total Guitar issue 249, on sale 23 December.

You can’t quite tell from this moody shot, but the headstock features a black and ginger finish – note Ed’s date of birth next to the Martin’s established date, too: nice touch
