Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
SP Luthier Notes: Fret Dress, Setup
From Martin and Co.
Understated looks, timeless tone. The warm tone of mahogany and authentic Sitka spruce couple with resonant scalloped bracing under the hood for a sound that's honest, authoritative, and clear. Vintage details like open-geared tuners and classic 18-style appointments pair with a modern, low profile neck for an old-soul sound in a brand-new body.
