Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
Thanks to Martin's own Vintage Tone System torrefaction recipe applied to the Adirondack top and braces this instrument starts off with the sort of old, broken-in tone that would take a player ages to earn the hard way. The result, paired with mahogany back and sides, is a dry, focused, responsive sound ideal for a dynamic player.
SP Luthier Notes: 5 frets replaced, partial fret dress, and setup
