Ed Sheeran launches a new guitar for children’s charity
19th February 2015
Ed Sheeran and Martin & Co. are teaming up for the second time to create the Ed Sheeran X Signature guitar.
The Ed Sheeran X Signature Edition features Sheeran’s signature “x” sign on the headstock and down the fretboard. The album’s logo is inlayed in solid koa on a solid spruce wood top. The model comes stage-ready, equipped with Fishman Isys T electronics, SP Lifespan Martin strings and a padded gig bag.
Sheeran is once again donating 100% of his royalties from the sales of each guitar to East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices, a UK-based charity that supports families and cares for young people with life-threatening conditions.
“It was a huge privilege working with the Martin team to create another Signature Edition guitar,” commented Sheeran. “I’ve had the chance to bring the new model on the road with me already, and I’m excited that my fans will be able to purchase one of their own, with all the proceeds going to EACH, a charity very close to my heart.”
