Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Very Good
A few little dings and dents can't stop this fresh-dressed dread! While the playwear is hard to picture, the rich, boomy, sonorous voice of this instrument comes right across from the first note. After a light fret dress and setup from our luthier, this majestic fellow is ready to rip and roar for years to come.
From Martin and Co.
Inlaid in stunning abalone pearl and appointed with gold tuners, it's more than a Dreadnought: it's an heirloom. Premium East Indian rosewood and Sitka spruce combined with hand-carved scalloped bracing to produce rich, powerful, complex tone.
