This quirky acoustic guitar features a big painting of David Crosby telling you to vote – get it now at a HUGE $350 discount
Sweetwater is offering a generous discount on a rather unique guitar – this Martin D-11E acoustic with a large picture of David Crosby on it, encouraging you to “rock the vote and the stage all at once”.
This guitar certainly has character, and was once priced over $1,600 but is now down to $1,299. It follows on from a former run of David Crosby Rock the Vote instruments, with a patriotic spruce top featuring artwork by Robert Goetzl.

The guitar landed in August 2024 and is limited-edition, with only 47 made. The artwork is certainly realistic, and while it may not be to the taste of some players, for a Crosby fan it makes for one hell of a unique collectible. Alongside the pictures of him, it also features a quote from the late musician: “democracy works, if you work it!”
According to Martin, this D-11E was “crafted to inspire young people to engage in our democracy, honouring the legacy of David Crosby and his passion for voting”. At the launch of the collaboration, Martin said it was proud to support Rock the Vote, reinforcing the importance of civic engagement.
The guitar itself has a classic Martin dreadnought shape, though its depth is slimmed down. Its back and sides are made of American sycamore and it has a comfortable Performing Artist neck profile and a glassy ebony fingerboard.
Furthermore, it also comes equipped with an LR Baggs M-80 pickup that utilises a free-floating humbucking coil as a 3D body sensor and offers “authentic-sounding” tone. You can take a closer look at the guitar below, and hear from the artist behind its looks:
