Condition: Used, Vintage, Good. This instrument was made in 1927 and bears cosmetic features and repairs that are no tunexpected of an instrument this age. There is a wood splice on one of the sides of the guitar that was part of it before it came to us. The top finish appears original, the back and sides appear to be oversprayed - also before it came to us. The bridge is not original to the guitar, and neither are the tuning machines. There are crack repairs that have been done prior to this guitar coming to us.

SP Luthier Notes: The neck joint had naturally shifted over time leaving much to be desired of the guitar's action. Our luthier removed the neck then reset the neck joint to factory condition. Our luthier made a new, bone saddle for the guitar and installed it. A crack was present on the back and sides of the guitar. As such our luthier stabilized, filled, and refinished the affected area.

Immerse yourself in the soulful sound of this incredible 1927 Martin 0-18!
