Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Vintage - Considerable wear and checking consistent with an instrument of this age
A piece of history that's still kickin'--hard! This 00 hasn't spent any time hiding under a bed; it's been out in the world doing the good work that it was intended for. After a trip home to the folks at Martin, this guitar's stronger, wiser, and bluesier than ever. You just haven't played a fingerstyle guitar until you pick up a classic model like this!
