AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The Martinez MCG 98 is a high grade classical study guitar with a
solid cedar top, bocote laminated back and sides, an ebony
fingerboard, and a hidden truss rod, designed for responsive tone
and reliable playability.
Multiple listings describe the MCG 98 family (MC98C, MCG 98CS)
as one of the highest quality guitars in Martinez’s Standard Series
It is positioned as a serious study instrument, above entry level
models and below custom shop tiers.
Key construction features
Solid cedar top — provides warmth and strong projection
Laminated bocote back & sides — visually striking and resonant;
used on Martinez’s higher grade Standard models
Ebony fingerboard — improves clarity and direct response
Hidden truss rod — uncommon in classical guitars; improves
long term neck stability and allows setup adjustments
Detail rich build — described as showing “more detail than
any other in this Standard series”
How it plays and sounds
High responsiveness to the player’s touch
Warm, classical tone from the cedar top and bocote body
Excellent playability, supported by the truss rod adjustable neck
Model naming variations
The search results show several near identical names:
MCG 98CS
MC 98C
All are described with the same core specifications: solid cedar top,
bocote back/sides, ebony fingerboard, hidden truss rod, and
placement in the Standard Series
Retailers and auction sites often use slightly different codes,
but the instrument is effectively the same model.
Market positioning and pricing context
Described as “the best Martinez guitar with laminated sides and back”
within the Standard Series
New retail listings show it priced around €529 without case
Auction estimates for used examples fall around €400–€480 without case
Which players should consider it?
The MCG 98 is well suited for:
Intermediate to advanced students wanting a responsive,
warm sounding classical guitar.
Players who value adjustable setup (rare in classical guitars).
Those seeking higher grade woods without moving into professional
concert level pricing.
