SP Luthier Notes: All of the frets were polished, recrowned and leveled. The truss rod and bridge were fully adjusted. Expected ware on french polish on the top. The pickguard was rebuffed. Unwanted noise and/or loss of signal were eliminated by cleaning and re-soldering the guitar's electronics. No further work was needed.
This all-solid mahogany acoustic guitar is a warm, resonant workhorse that feels just as good in your hands as it sounds in the room. With a non-cutaway body built from solid mahogany top, back, and sides, supported by classic A-frame X bracing, it delivers a woody depth and shimmering sustain that only gets sweeter with age—making it a true investment piece. The low oval neck shape, rosewood fingerboard, and 25.4" scale length make for smooth playability, while the compensated bone saddle and nut ensure precise intonation. Open-gear tuners add vintage charm while keeping everything locked in tune, and the satin finish gives it an understated elegance that invites endless playing. Completed with a protective gig bag, this guitar has been carefully maintained by a luthier, making it a supremely reliable, rock-solid instrument that sings beautifully and absolutely does not disappoint!
For well over a century and a half, The Martin Guitar Company has been continuously producing acoustic instruments that are acknowledged to be the finest in the world. The Martin Guitar Company has, through the years, managed to survive with each succeeding generation from C. F. Martin, Sr.?s Stauffer influenced creations of the 1830s to recent developments introduced by C. F. Martin IV. Continuous operation under family management is a feat bordering on the remarkable, reflecting six generations of dedication to the guitarmaker?s craft. In or out of the music industry, C. F. Martin has few rivals for sheer staying power. Throughout its colorful history, the company has adapted successfully to continual changes in product design, distribution systems, and manufacturing methods. In spite of the many changes, C. F. Martin has never veered away from its initial commitment to quality. The concern for producing the finest instruments possible in 1833 is especially evident today at Martin?s expanded facility in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. The story behind one of America?s most famous guitars began on January 31, 1796, in Markneukirchen, Germany, with the birth of Christian Frederick Martin, Sr. Born into a long line of cabinet makers, Christian Frederick took up the family craft at the early age of 15, when he left his hometown and traveled to Vienna to apprentice with Johann Stauffer, a renowned guitar maker.
