Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Very Good - One visible seam from a crack that our luthier repaired, and a dent (both pictured)
Wow! This OM has a wonderful complex, but balanced voice and a perfectly responsive top. The neck feels great in your hands and the appointments are lovely to behold!

It continues to innovate, introducing techniques and features that have become industry standards including X-bracing, the 14-fret guitar and the "Dreadnought" size. One of the world's leading acoustic instrument makers, Martin guitars are hand-made by skilled craftsmen and women, who use a combination of new design and techniques along with those introduced by the company founder.
The company is also known for producing high-quality, popular acoustic guitar strings. These include the Martin SP® LIFESPAN™ line - the fastest-growing treated string in the industry, and the Martin SP line - which uses an industry leading core wire to hold tunings better.
